Purchased a new video camera with manual XLR
inputs. However the microphone preamp has such
little gain that I'm forced to use an external microphone
preamp as a head-amplifier to drive the camera's
XLR inputs.
What type of microphones have sufficient gain to drive
these XLR inputs? What doesn't work: Shure KSM 27
(104 ohms), AKG C420 (200 ohms) and Sennheiser ME66
(200 ohms). A phone call to Canon tech support, they
didn't have any information on the microphone preamp
specifications. It was their_understanding_ that any 600
ohm microphone would work.
