DSLR external microphone?

No onboard microphone is going to sound good for dialogue. What you need is a microphone on a boom pole. You could have the best Neumann shotgun mic and sound devices recorder and it would sound terrible if the mic was on the camera. Check out the Zoom recorders, and the Sennheiser MKH-416. If your going to do on board, don't spend a lot of money, save for a boom pole setup.

No, sadly it does not come with an external microphone. You have to do all the ajustments by yourself. There are other brands that do have an external microphone, like Pioneer which has a Customized Home Theater System (I think they call it "Pioneer Auto MCACC Room Calibration").

Hello, This HomeMonitor HD Pro is one-way (listening) audio only and does not have the capability to add an external microphone. Thank you, Network Camera Store

First if your DSLR has no headphone jack, that is no good esp if u are using it a lot. To answer the main question, the Rode VideoMic does NOT have a headphone jack outlet. I am not sure if there is a mic out in the market that has a headphone jack. Perhaps some big industrial one?

You would use one of the audio inputs for plugging in this microphone. Most systems have a setting for mapping which microphone input goes to which camera. You would use the output to output audio to an external speaker for live playback of audio. You would have to have a speaker with an rca type connector to do so.

There's a microphone input jack that for an external microphone. I haven't used it yet, but that's what it's for. Enjoy your camcorder.

I can't help you. I use mine on a Nikon D7000. Check your user's manual and if you have a mini USB connector on your D3200 that will accept an external mic then there is no reason why it wouldn't't work,

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

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.

No, there is no built-in microphone. You can setup an external one with it which has an audio cable linker there.

It has its own built-in microphone. There is no need to plug in an external microphone.

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.

Unfortunately Sony did not have the foresight to add an external Mic port. However, it DOES have dual Stereo speakers/microphones in the front directly below the lens. I was fortunate enough to buy three of these before the price became astronomical. Excellent sound, even without the external mic!!!

Yes.The camera comes with a 'stereo' mic jack for external mics (next to an accessory terminal).

While the camera does not have a standard external microphone input, it does have a micro usb multiport that could be used to record from a microphone with a micro usb connector. Adapters are available to convert the inputs from a microphone with a 1/8" or 1/4" plug connection. I am not sure about xlr configurations. Microphones with micro usb connectors are also available. You could also use a standard usb connector with a micro adaptor.
