Is there any audio level adjustment or phantom microphone power available?

0

No, there is only a line-level input, and it’s set for maximum dynamic range (or voltage swing). To control the levels on the microphone, you should use an analog mixer with line level output, or a mic-preamp and adjust the gain settings on the pre-amp. Alternatively you can use a USB audio interface rather than the line inputs. Line inputs were selected over mic-inputs in order to get the maximum audio quality into the camera system. We were not able to secure the means to develop a quiet and properly shielded mic-pre-amp system that would have delivered the audio quality demanded by the professional community. Line level inputs allows us to make sure that users are able to get the audio quality they need through the user of high-quality analog front-ends.
