Noisy pro-sumer cameras?

[Ty Ford]

Hello Robin,

Well in many of today’s cameras, the line level input is just a resistor network in front of the mic level inputs.

But yes, in theory, the mixer preamps will be of better quality and they will improve the audio quality, especially if you can bypass the camera preamps.
