  • Spoiler Alert! The answer is unfortunately “NO”!
    Here is the link to the microphone set I purchased on Amazon:

    This set works great with my Samsung Galaxy Note 8 phone for recording my voice in windy conditions.

    I too have the same canon . I bought it primarily to take shots of the craters on the moon. But would now like to use it for ytube recrodings to which I say thanks you saved me both effort and $$. Im not too happy with the pictures quality of this camera. My iPhone takes better pics actually, but again its unmatched for a $300 camera that takes craters on the moon.

      Thank you for your comment Jennifer. It is frustrating that this camera cannot connect to an external mike; other than that it is a great camera. Well, I ended up purchasing a nice Sony Handycam for my videos, and it was been working great. Cheers!

    Try testing it but start with the external microphone. In the past I've used cameras that can't switch audio sources during the same video. So take 1 video with it and one without it and test the difference.

    I think you missed the proper test. In both instances, you were speaking into the internal mic from a few inches away. Of course it sounds the same. You should test both mics standing a few feet from the mic while you're facing the camera.

    • @PropsWheels

  • @heitor5998

    I've watched a video about this and, if I'm not wrong, you have to choose at the menu from what you want to record audio. Sync seems ok, but when you do too much cuts it starts to be annoying. thanks for the video anyway and good luck.

    • @PropsWheels
      @PropsWheels  3 роки тому +1

      That is correct, the sync is a pain in the neck. I recently purchased a proper camcorder for my videos. Cheers!

    Hello, have you tried to connect, via the usb of your camera, an audio interface such as Tascam or Zoom.
    Be careful ! Not all tascam and zoom have audio interface. So for example you can connect Tascam dr40x on Iphone or android via usb. But the question is : does the camera accept it as external audio through usb ??
    Thanks in advance

    • @PropsWheels
      @PropsWheels  3 роки тому

      I could not connect to any external microphone, and in its manual it is indicated as well. So I do not think there is any external audio via USB either.
