■
Attaching the Microphone
• Turn off the camera's power.
• Remove the shoe cover from the accessory shoe on the camera
(Fig. 1).
• Remove the cover from the microphone (Fig.
2)
.
• Insert the mounting foot
of
the microphone until it clicks into the
accessory shoe on the camera (Fig. 3).
• Slide the mounting foot lock lever until it clicks and secures the
microphone (Fig. 4).
0 • Make sure the microphone is securely attached. Loose
attachment
may
cause malfunctioning, and the microphone
may fall off.
•
Do
not touch the contacts with your fingers. This
may
lead
to corrosion. Corroded contacts may cause malfunctioning.
• Blow
off
any
foreign material on the multi-function shoe with
a commercially available blower
or
similar tool.
•Allow
the multi-function shoe
to
dry
before use
if it
gets
wet.
■
Attaching the Wind Screen
This has the effect
of
reducing noise from wind, etc. (Fig. 5).
0 •
Do
not pull on
or
wash the wind screen,
as
fibers can easily
come out
due
to the material it is
made
from. A loss
of
fibers
causes a reduction in the noise reduction effect
of
the wind
screen.
•
Do
not use
or
store the wind screen in a high-temperature
location, such
as
inside a car
under
the hot sun. Doing so
will cause the base material
to
harden and the fibers
to
wither.
• Take care to ensure that fibers that
come
out
of
the wind
screen do not enter the camera.
■
Using the Microphone
• Turn on the camera's power.
• Press the microphone's
<MENU>
button and set the [Sound
recording) menu. For information on the (Sound recording]
menu, refer to the "Advanced

0 •
Do
not apply excessive force
to
the microphone installation
part
of
the camera. Doing
so
may
cause
it
to break.
•
Do
not hold the camera
by
the microphone when the
microphone is attached to the camera. Doing
so
may
cause
the microphone to break
or
the camera
to
fall.
• Test the microphone
by
speaking into it. Do
not
tap the
microphone
or
blow into it.
•
Do
not touch the microphone
or
wind screen while
recording. Doing
so
will cause noise to be recorded.
• Using the microphone close
to
objects that emit strong
-electromagneticiietds-(radio-towers, high-voltage wires,
mobile phones, etc.)
may
cause noise to be recorded.
• Noise
may
be recorded
if
wireless functions on the camera
are in use. It is recommended that you
do
not
use wireless
functions when recording.
• Sound
may
be distorted
if
the temperature around the
microphone is
low
.
• The microphone is not dustproof
or
waterproof.
Do
not
allow rain, sand, dust, etc. to
enter
the microphone.
• Operating noises may be recorded
if
the camera
or
lens is
operated while shooting video. Furthermore, function noises
of
the camera and lens
may
be recorded.
■
Detaching the Microphone
Detach the microphone from the camera for storage.
• Turn
off
the camera's
power
.
• While pressing the lock-release button, slide the lock lever to
release the lock (Fig. 6).
