Using a wireless lavalier mic on the NXCAM
Hello everyone.
I just bought a new NXCAM and absolutely love it. I have been using a wireless lavalier mic on a different camera, which on the receiver uses a 1/8 plug to go into the camera. My old camera had a external mic input with a 1/8 jack, but I can’t seem to find a similar one for the NXCAM. Am I just missing it, or is there some kind of adapter to change the connector to fit the external XLR mic input?
I was considering purchasing a Sennheiser EW112-p G3 as a replacement, but don’t know if I will have the same issue.
All help sincerely appreciated. Did I mention that I LOVE this camera? 🙂

Scott,
Buy the Sennheiser EW112. You will love it too.
That is what I use and it works great. The sennheiser comes with two types of connectors that you can swap out. One for connecting to an xlr and one for connecting to an 1/8 inch jack.
Pro cameras all use xlr because they are more rugged and versatile. DJ sound systems and hotel sound systems are all xlr, so you can more easily connect to them.
