I wondered if a Panasonic mic would work (yes I know it should), but can't find any on their website (they just want to sell you flat screeen TV's)

I just found this link
'Panasonic Stereo Zoom Microphone (For Panasonic NV-GS70) - £149.99 at Jessops.com'

It may work, but quite frankly I just want to spend up to about £20 max.

I already own many high quality mics and don't want to pay silly sums for 'other' microphones. But Of course I do need to find out if the mic input works!!

If it does I'll build a system to operate my good mics.

Sheesh - what hassle.

Thanks for the comments Guys.

If I get a breakthrough, i'll report back.
