Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. I have a Nikon D3100. Will this microphone work for my camera?

A: My D3100 does not have an input jack. I believe that option came later, so you can not use this for that model.

Q: 2. The mount is positioned sideways when attached to the camera hot shoe. How can the mic be rotated so that it faces forward?

Q: 3. Is this mic compatible with the Nikon D3200?

Q: 5. I was wondering if this microphone is compatible with the Nikon D500 camera? And how's the performance of this microphone? I did read the reviews on this microphone but I thought that I would like to get some new reviews on this microphone. Thank You!

A: I have the Nikon D5300 and it is compatible. I mainly use it for taping Vlogs and it works very well. Much better audio quality than camera alone. It will pick-up some extraneous noise, but it is limited. I found it worth the investment.

Q: 6. Is this mic compatible with Nikon 1 S1?

A: I would say 99.99% yes. Does the Nikon 1 S1 has a stereo pin jack, that is so ubiquitous among the electronic today? I would call Nikon on their 800 number just to double check, the call is on Nikon's dime so it won't cost you anything. The mic will probably work on any other equipment beside Nikon camera equipment if they have this jack.

Q: 8. is the mount required in order to use this microphone for the nikon D5300?

A: It is a standard Nikon standard shoe mount. No special mount needed. You just slide it into your hot shoe on your Nikon camera and connect the 3.5mm mini-plug to your Nikon camera or Canon(I haven't tried it) etc, but if you have a flash, etc you must either remove it or get a bracket so that you can mount both your flash and mic at the sometime. It works great on my Nikon D5200. But remember if you use Nikon TTL-flash, your flash will need to communicate to the camera through the shoe mount. The mic does not communicate any other info to the camera than the miniplug. The mic will also work on other brands of cameras, camcorders, computers etc, equipped with a 3.5mm mini plug/jack which is most. The 3.5 miniplug/jack is pretty common in electronics today. It generates enough signal strength so it need no batteries. Ron
