I have a DCR-SR290E which has its own built in microphone. Is it possible to use an external microphone? And where does it plug in? I suspect it plugs into the REMOTE jack socket.
This model has whats called an "active interface shoe" that allows you to use the camcorders optional lights and microphones with the camcorder. Details sould be in the intructions (page 16).
In terms of what are available, the below link should prove helpful.

Thanks for advice. Sony mics to fit on the accessory shoe are a little beyond my funds. I'll make do with the built in mic.
