621009	2007-12-14 00:23:00	Hi, Does any kind soul know of any video cameras (mini DV tape type) that have an outlet jack for a separate microphone ? Thanks for any help Pete	Organicpete (133)
621010	2007-12-14 00:29:00	Yup, I've got one. A Panasonic DV cam. Its pretty old now, but still works. Why do u ask?	Speedy Gonzales (78)
621011	2007-12-14 03:08:00	Yes. My Sony Mini-DV DCR-PC350E does. Do you want to buy it? I don't use the mic plugin though, I have an external Mic that attaches to the Shoe on top.	Bantu (52)
621012	2007-12-14 04:33:00	My Canon also does it. Not sure of the model #	pine-o-cleen (2955)
621013	2007-12-14 07:10:00	Thanks Guys, My girlfriend is making little arty docos and I thought getting the mic off cam would be an improvement. Bantu I can't find that model on sale here anymore. How much do you want for it ? :) cheers Pete	Organicpete (133)
621014	2007-12-14 08:59:00	Just bought one of these: www.bhphotovideo.com l for a Sony HDRHC5. Only available in the US but pretty cheap given the NZ$ is high (shipping is a killer so check if there's anything else you like on the site!) Mine turned up within about 4 days, works like a charm (just no headphone out so monitoring is a bit of a pain) but works with virtually all Sony Handycam models from the last couple of years. Sony also have the HDRHC7e with mic and headphone jacks onboard (about $1799 I think?). Both cameras use MiniDV tape but also shoot in HD - I'm sure your girlfriend will appreciate the picture quality difference! (even footage shot in HD and downscaled to SD using the camera looks pretty hot)	joe_exception (2874)
