You can record audio using the built-in stereo microphone, commercially available external
microphone (INPUT 1/INPUT 2 terminals*, MIC terminal) or line input (INPUT 1/INPUT 2 terminals*).
Using the INPUT 1/INPUT 2 terminals, you can select the audio input independently for channel 1
(CH1) and channel 2 (CH2).

kHz. LPCM audio playback is also available for scenes recorded with those recording modes.
