    External microphones that can be used with the EOS 7D Mark II

    Solution

      Stereo sound recording is also possible by connecting the Directional Stereo Microphone DM-E1 (sold separately) to the camera’s external microphone IN terminal as the external microphone is given the priority.
      Most external microphones equipped with a 3.5 mm diameter mini plug can be used.
      NOTE
      • It is possible to use a microphone that supports plug-in power (which is supplied from a camera to the microphone) because the EOS 7D Mark II is compatible with plug-in power.
      • It is possible to use a condenser microphone. However, it is not possible to use a condenser microphone that requires phantom power (which is supplied from external power equipment to the microphone).
      • It is not possible to use a dynamic microphone.
      • The camera’s built-in microphone will also record the operation sound during shooting and mechanical sound of the camera. These sounds in the movie may be reduced by using the Directional Stereo Microphone DM-E1 (sold separately).
