Can you plug an external microphone into this?

Kevin W., I just double-checked this specific videocam again. There is no way to connect an external mic. There is 1 slot labeled "AV", but this is merely for playback purposes. The included cord that fits into this slot has at its other end the typical 3 jacks, colored red, yellow, and white.

No, there's an external power supply for this. Just connect the green audio cable.

I don't believe so. It only has a multi port and dc port. I don't believe you can get a mic to plug into either one of those. Hope this helps.

Elizabeth, Go Pro makes a mic adapter to allow using an external microphone - there are a few good videos on YouTube that explain how to use one.

I believe it is designed to accept an external microphone but I have only used the built-in microphone for my use.

No, I don't think so. This is strictly a handheld. The external mic feature usaully comes with a mounted VHF in a cabin for easy use at the helm.

Yes, there is a microphone jack on the camera and you may use an external mic.

If there is an external plug for a microphone then it'll work but this particular mic is a p.o.s. I returned mine.

No, I don't think so. I just looked at it and there isn't a mic input. I can't imagine any of the other ports supporting this, so I have to so no.

No, not that I see in the online manual, plus I don't see connectivity on the camera for an external mike. http://pdf.crse.com/manuals/4424086131/EN/contents/02/index.html

No, not for an microphone. However, there is an external audio jack for headphones.

You will need external speakers. This is a mic, only; although it does have a monitor jack for headphones (so you can hear what the mic is picking up).

Only if your microphone also has an XLR option. There is only the USB connection to the computer not any for USB microphones

There is no MIC input on this unit, one may find a way to connect USB sound device (which offers Mic input) to the existing USB port but that will be a long shot.

If you have a place to plug in headphones, yes. The microphone does not plug into a USB port. Rather, it plugs into the circular headphone audio jack.

Mine did not come with an external mic nor does it have a place you can connect an optional external mic. It does though have exceptional audio receive. I find the built-in mic has great quality.

Unfortunately no without a USB sound box which can accept dynamic microphone input.
