I have D5000, where do I input the mic to the camera?

Hey there should be a door/flap on wide of your camera DSLR. There will be an audio input there. If it is not in there then somewhere on exterior will be an audio jack hole/input. All camera type DSLRs should be about the same in functionality(Nikon and Canon).

The D5000 is a Nikon camera; my experience with MegaGear mics is with Canon cameras. A quick review of the D5000 showed me that no external microphone minijack exists. review your manual or consult your nearest Nikon dealer for perhaps a better answer.

According to the tech specs and the D5000 owners manual it appears that this DSLR model doesn't have a 3.5mm jack that this mic needs to operate.

You may have another sound source connected, such as a headset with a microphone. If so, that sound input may override the camera's mike.

There are two small jacks on the back side (holes). As looking at theback, the right one is power (marked), the right one is speaker jack. Simply plug a small jack into that port and there ya go. The camera it'self has a built in microphone.

I also have a D200. Look at the front of the camera. On the upper right of the body there is a small round screw in plug right under the D200 logo. Unscrew it to reveal the receiver. Be sure of the angle when inserting the coupling on the remote and put the cap somewhere safe. It is easy to lose.

Hi Kevin, I ran into the same problem as I have a Canon T3 Rebel, which has no mic input. So I purchased this little adapter to plug the Takstar mic into my iPhone's headphone jack: http://amzn.to/1yUm7wk You will need to just sync the sound to your video recording via some editing software. If you're curious, I am recording on the iTalk app (free): https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/italk-recorder/id293673304?mt=8 A bit of a pain, but worth the improved quality from the camera's built-in mic.

Yes, in the menu. You must have the camera plugged in to a monitor to access the menu. There isn't a function or a button on the camera that will do it.

If you go to Pioneers website they have a bunch of how to videos you can watch and they tell you how to use the microphone. It appears in your unit the aux input ( which the mic uses ) is on the back of the unit

Dose not have a auxiliary input jack for that, just the connection for the external mic.

Dear customer,this is greeting from Loftek. If you want to use the audio,i suggest you install a output audio at the back of the camera,there is a hole there as you can see.

In your DAW or Software program...you need to select the USB MIC'S Name as the Input device once the USB Mic is Plugged into your system, Simple!

Sadly no. The camera does not have a mic input jack, but even after I bought an adapter, it did not work

I recommend a Fiio E6 amplifier between any microphone and camera, where the mic does not have a boost function. Without this, the sound may be poor and you may be tempted to blame the mic when the problem is actually in the camera.

I did more research since I first posted an answer to this question. The new G6 has an external mic socket on the front of the camera on the left side. Here is the link to the users manual. http://service.us.panasonic.com/OPERMANPDF/DMCG6K.PDF

You need a 3.5 mm, mic input. I have canon t3i. This is not a great mic it's ok

The Nikon d3100 does not have a mic input. Canon is a better solution for dslr video.

Returned mine but if recall correctly mic is built-in. Should install with camera driver installation and find it it in audio devices.

All you do is just plug it in and find in the system this camera and mark it to work as a camera and a microphone. It is very simple, no other stuff is necessary. It still works for me, but only as a microphone (video broke some time ago)
