Administrators Andrew Reid Posted June 21, 2021 Administrators Share Posted June 21, 2021 Looks like Canon did not shield the mic input from the USB C power circuit! BTM_Pix and zerocool22 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Matthews Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 I had a similar problem with a cheap usb-c power plug. All the sudden, buzzing noises. I switched to a usb type a and everything was fine or I could have used a battery with a usb-c PD. This happened on my Olympus e-m1 ii... super frustrating! Funny video. Liking the format.

IronFilm Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 Even if the audio was fine on your particular camera, we've learned by now that we shouldn't trust on camera audio as quality control for audio on mirrorless/DSLRs is close to zilch it seems. Thus even if you heard a review that "audio is good" on XYZ Camera, that means next to nothing. Unless repeated over and over many many times. As we've had numerous reports about how audio is sh*t on ABC Camera, only for someone else to report it is fine, then yet someone else have issues, etc... no consistency even within the same model of camera. Everyone just get yourself a Sound Devices MixPre3 (or a Zoom F6, especially as Sound Devices has for now discontinued the MixPre3) instead, bolt it under your camera, and record to that.
