What about with DSLR cameras that have a 2.5mm mic output?

Dont even buy anything from these people. I purchased a 3.5 mm. to 2.5 mm. converter and a 2.5 to 2.5 showed up.

I'm no professional but I believe the built-in mic(5.1ch) is superior to the directional(2.1ch?) that is included in this kit. During my first few times with the rig on the camera I found myself forgetting to turn on the external mic while it was plugged into the camera, resulting in no audio for those video recordings. Don't plan on using it for everyday recording and only if I need its directional capabilities.

I highly doubt it. No way this camera is 5MP. The zoom is terrible and eventually got stuck which then ruined it. There is no microphone. I took it apart and it was hollow. I'd stay away from this

Probably. This mic has a standard 3.5mm input jack so it should fit most cameras. If it's jack doesn't fit your camera, a simple adapter for about $2.00 will be required. Your camera is probably either 3.5mm or 2.5mm for the audio input.

Yes Indeedy, the microphone uses a 3.5mm Jack, and the D5100 comes with that port available as a Mic Input. If it sounds fuzzy, though, it's most likely the audio gain settings on the camera, so if you get some static noise, try different microphones in the port, or try that mic on different recorders before assuming it's a faulty microphone. God Speed.

The mic is monophonic, using tip and sleeve on the plug. A stereo plug has tip, ring and sleeve. So, you are effectively shorting/bridging the ring and sleeve so you only hear a signal out of one side. This mic is really designed for a camera - I use mine for audio on my Canon T3i with great results. For stereo, you will need a stereo mic with an 1/8" stereo plug - e.g. tip, ring, and sleeve.

Hey, I haven't really heard one yet, but if your camera has a 3.5mm headphone jack, don't use the included 1/4" to 3.5mm adapter because it is cheap and it may make some noise. You can purchase a quality adapter on eBay, Amazon, or Radio Shack.Hope this helps!! ;)

This unit does not provide a headphone jack so you will have use different hardware. Some professionals will use a digital recorder which can give you the pass through audio to the dslr, a headphone jack, and a back up audio track of probably better quality. This is the way I would go. The azden is a great little mixer so you can use two or three mics at the same time. I used mine shooting a tv show to get the host and the guest on audio with the ability to set the balance.

I use it for external audio with my canon dslr's. The preamp in those cameras is pretty lousy, so expect mediocre sound quality. I use an external audio recorder for it and sync the audio in post. I use the H1 Zoom and get excellent audio quality. Definitely the recommended method of recording audio with those cameras. I love this audio technica set as well. Sounds really great.

yes, but it's a pretty noisy mic and won't necessarily be a huge improvement over the t3i internals.

No. It has a P2 audio output jack and you will have noise and problems with audio. If your audio is captured other way, so use HDMI conector. But this camera is not full hd.

The camera has audio in, and it is good. But, if you want a very good sound you could use a external mike. It could put on the camera.

No. There are gaps for your camera, microphone and speakers, otherwise it would sound horrible.

You can hook up any type of mic. Usually a shotgun mic is used for on camera.

The integrated flash feature will give you a cleaner, clearer recording. It will also eliminate any type of hiss you might get. Basically, your not recording into the camera's internal mic and preamp, which can be noisey. Thanks Bonnie.

I've seen several DSLR camera operators using the Audio Technica system. The only thing I've heard them say is they needed to buy a 3.5 mono to stereo adapter to get true stereo sound on their videos without having to do a lot of post video work with a software program.

It has a standard Mic jack, and a 1/4 adapter for plugging directly into an amp/ P.A. system. As long as the camera has the standard 1/8" Mic jack it should work fine. Sound quality is another issue entirely
