Microphone Accessory
I have a SONY HDR-XR160E camera and I would like to know more about external microphones to plug into the camera. What kinds are possible and/or best and is it necessary to power it externally or can I simply plug in a microphone? Do I have to program the camera in some way or do some steps for it to be accepted by the camera?
Thank you
