Overview
The Canon MA-400 Microphone Adapter allows you to mount a microphone on your Canon EOS C300 MK II Camera or Canon XC15 4K Professional Camcorder. The Mic Adapter fits on your camera accessory shoe so you can hold an optional on-board microphone. The Mic Adapter is powered by the camera or camcorder's power supply and does not require additional power or batteries to operate.
The Microphone Adapter provides the ability to use the INPUT Terminals to record audio from your compatible microphone (19-20 mm diameter) or analog line in sources with an XLR connector.
Attach the MA-400 to yoru camera or camcorder by sliding the attachment base into your camera or camcorder's accessory shoe, then tightening the lock screw to secure in place. Connect the AUDIO terminal to the camcorder or camera AUDIO terminal with the appropriate cable. A cable clamp can be helpful to keep this cable from snagging as you move the camera during recording.
Your condenser microphone with its own power supply and a 3.5mm stereo mini jack/plug can be used in the Microphone Adapter. To attach your microphone to the MA-400 Microphone Adapter, begin by loosening the microphone lock screw on the top of the Adapter. Open the microphone holder to insert your microphone, then tighten the lock screw. The microphone cable feeds through the cable clamp under your microphone holder. Place the mic cable into either an INPUT Terminal or a MIC Terminal (Input 1 and Input 2) on this Mic Adapter.
