XLR mic with your camera without an XLR input?

Can you plug a standard XLR microphone into the 1/8" (3.5mm) input on your camera.....and have it actually work?

You'd be surprised. But just always remember to use your audio knowledge and do some testings, because you can get a lot done with information and tools, even if the tools aren't always perfect.

Enjoy!

Here is the cable I used to do this - XLR to 3.5mm TRS (Tip+Ring to Pin 2 of XLR side): https://amzn.to/43V1Hnj

Hosa makes a version as well, it's hard to tell from the picture but this one *should do it too, https://amzn.to/3peyd4K
