Recording Audio: Three Options
1. The camera has a built-in low-quality microphone on the front of
the camera. This is useful only to record audio as a reference.
Ignore this option.
2. Mounting a small directional microphone on the top shoe of the
camera and input directly into the camera. Unfortunately, the
Canon T2i has an automatic volume level adjustment that adds
noise to the audio signal. This is a somewhat acceptable option.
3. Recording audio with an external (for example, a Zoom) recorder
and a variety of microphones. This is the
best option
but the audio
will have to be synchronized to the video in editing software.
