How to get good sound on a consumer camcorder? Mic recommendations?

[Andrés Martín]

Hi, I’m new here.
I also have a Panasonic TM-900, and i wanted to buy this microphone https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1012003-REG/rode_videomic_go_videomic_go_on_camera_shotgun.html
It says it needs 2.5V from the audio input jack. Do you know if this camera can provide that?

Thank you very much

Hello Andres and welcome to the Cow Audio Forum.

I can’t tell if the camera has that ability, and I’m guessing you haven’t found it to either.

So, they are either bad at marketing specs or the camera doesn’t have that feature.
