Recording
To adjust the levels manually
Set the AUDIO SELECT switches CH-1 and CH-
2 to MANUAL and adjust the audio recording
levels by turning the AUDIO LEVEL controls.
Set the controls to 5 for the reference setting (0
dB). Setting to 10 maximizes the level (+12 dB),
and setting to 0 minimizes it (–
∞).
The input levels are displayed on the screen when
you press the DISPLAY/BATT INFO button.
When you perform fine adjustment using “TRIM
CH-1” and “TRIM CH-2” of “Audio Input” (page
127) of the AUDIO SET menu, set the AUDIO
LEVEL controls to 5 and adjust the microphone
sensitivity so that the appropriate meter
indications are obtained.
Audio recording in special recording
modes
• No audio recording is made in Interval
Recording or Frame Recording.
• No audio recording is made in Slow & Quick
recording if the recording frame rate is set to a
value different from the playback frame rate.
You can monitor the sounds being recorded with
the headphones connected to the headphone
connector (stereo mini jack).
Note
The built-in speaker is disabled in Camera mode.
To adjust the audio monitoring volume
Use the MONITOR VOL buttons.
Pressing the + button increases the volume, and
pressing the – button decreases it. To muffle the
sound, set it to the minimum level.
While you adjust the volume, the level is
displayed as a bar on the screen.
