You can shoot movies while recording 
sound with the built-in monaural 
microphone or an external stereo 
microphone (commercially-available). 
You can also freely adjust the sound-
recording level.
Set the sound recording with [z4: 
Sound recording].
Auto : The sound-recording level is adjusted automatically. Auto 
level control will operate automatically in response to the 
sound level.
Manual : For advanced users. You can adjust the sound-recording 
level to one of 64 levels.
Select [Rec. level] and turn the <5> dial while looking at 
the level meter to adjust the sound-recording level. Look 
at the peak hold indicator, and adjust so that the level 
meter sometimes lights up on the right of the “12” (-12 dB) 
mark for the loudest sounds. If it exceeds “0”, the sound 
will be distorted.
Line input : The audio can come through the Line input. The sound 
input will be recorded together with the image to the 
movie. You can adjust the sound-recording level to one of 
64 levels. The adjustment method is the same as with 
[Manual].
Disable : Sound will not be recorded. Also, sound will not be output 
for the HDMI output (p.338).
