I don't know about the sound elements to the camera. I only use it for still photos. It works great for those. -regards, Dan

Yep it has a microphone input in a small compartment on the right side. I believe it's a standard 3.5 mm jack though I haven't actually tested plugging in anything yet.

Yes, you can connect an external microphone to the QFX. It comes with a headset microphone, I feel you knew that one. I have mine for over two years now and it is holding up well.

The HDR AS30V does have an external mic input, however I have never used it so I can't rate it.

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

Just to let you know you're not alone in wondering about an external mic input. I have two high-quality wireless microphones and a lot of experience using them. I won't consider a camcorder if it doesn't have an external audio input. I am disappointed that you haven't received a reply. Good Luck!

I have had units with internal microphones and they are not very good when speaking to someone, you sound like you are in a tunnel or to much road noise. An external mic is the only way to go and the wires can be hidden very easily

Nope, you need a pre' amp interface usb like from m-audio . You will get way better quality. But there are some good usb mic out there on amazon.

No microphone, but you can plug one in. Depending on what you are using it for and how you use it, you may have some latency issues.

Hello Bat, Could you please clarify what you mean by external sound? I would be glad to answer you question as soon as you do that favor.

"The mic", I had to buy a USB Converter, but I got mine for $2.18. So its not to bad. I got mine at ----> HDE 7.1 Channel USB External Sound Card Audio Adapter. The mic isn't powered, so it needs a usb converter. Plus almost all computers have usb, not line-in.

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.

No....No built-in Mic. It does have an Aux input but an external mic adaptor (for impedance matching) would probably be required. Sorry, don't know any more sinceI haven't used mics since 2 ch analog audio days!

There is no way to know with any purely analog microphone. Some usb models may have that capability.
