It's very easy to block with a capacitor, but I don't think it's worth the
effort.At that price range, the camera must have an excellent
microphone.(anyway, Xc=1/(omega*C), where Xc=0 for that frequency range,
also audio frequencies, to allow them pass while blocking the DC, and omega
is 2*(pi)*f, frequency in Hz.Just for comparison, the capacitor for FM and
UHF is 1 nF, and for old-fashioned AM is 100 nF, at audio frequencies should
be at uF range).
