Hi. I'm looking to buy a hard drive camcorder, but my main problem is finding something that I can plug my sony mic into. The mic is a sony ecm M907 and it's stereo. I get extremely crisp and detailed quality through my portable minidisc recorder with the mic, but a guy at a sony centre told me I'd get nowhere near the same audio quality with a camcorder, no matter what mic. Is that true? Also, is there a camcorder that has a minijack socket to take my mic, or maybe I'd need to get an adapter?
Currently, I just video with my digi camera (awful tinny distorting mic on it of course) and record sound with my minidisc recorder. It's a pain having to sync up sound and video on my pc. I just want an all in one solution to transfer straight to pc, no synching, mpeg2, but most importantly with very high quality audio.
