does the camera have a monitor output jack as well as an external mic input jack?

There is an hdmi mini out which I haven't used, so don't know if it would function the way you want but I'm thinking so. There is an external mic input as well as a headphone jack, though I tried a couple high end shotgun microphones only to get a horrible buzzing sound. The jack works just fine with a lapel mic I tested and a cheap external digital recorder I tried. When I called Sony to find out the tech specks on the jack, they told me it was proprietary info and left me with no help. The store I was working with have up as well helping me find a microphone that would work well with no buzzing. It's a nice camcorder if you can get a used one at a decent price, but for just a little more money there are some better choices. Best of luck on your purchase!

This camera does indeed have both an external mic port and a headphone jack.

Hi Ron, My husband has used it more than I have. He says it does have a port to hook up an external microphone as well as the built in one. Hope this helps. It has worked well for the purpose we bought it for.

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

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.

Yes the built in mike plugs into the microphone jack on your PC. The Camera plugs into the USB Port on your PC.

It has an hdmi and an AV connection. I do not know if both will send a live signal. most llikely yes. There is no external mic jack. There are stereo mics built-in and the sound is very good up close with no echos. If there was an external jack this could be a very versitile camera. Picture quality is great. I use it for company product Internet demos

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

Yes. This has a video input. It uses a mini plug, to be used as an external monitor for an external video source, such as a camcorder.

No, it does not have any audio input. I can recommend Kodak zi8 and zi10 for digital video cameras with external Mic jacks.

No you can only connect HDMI and USB to it. No mic jack. This device selling point is cheap and night vision. Don't expect anything else

It sure does. I'm running audio on it for the past year. I picked up a separate surveillance camera microphone that plugs right into the audio jack. This camera comes with both a video and audio RCA input.

There is no microphone jack. The camera has a very useful microphone built in however.I have 3 of these cameras.

No separate audio input. The camera has a built in mic. You can use an external mic through the PC if you want better quality.

From what I can tell, there is no external mic input on this camera. It only has AV outputs, HDMI output, and USB output. You can only use the internal mic. That being said, the internal mic is pretty good, and even gets decent sound when I record my band with it, at high volume levels. It doesn't overload the mic, which means it has some kind of good auto level control.

It does have HDMI out, as well as many other jacks. And you have two XLR inputs for mics.

The camera itself does not have an external jack, but you can certainly opt to use your own microphone plugged into a USB or mike port. On my system (XPP), the webcam software detected the other mike and automatically used that one for videos. If it doesn't, you can go to settings and tell it which mike to use. Although the mike on this is adequate, it isn't exceptional and you buy this web cam for the video not the sound. I prefer an external mike for sound anyway as the on-camera ones are positioned wrong and don't have the optimal sound quality
