External Microphone for Canon Rebel T5I???

7-1-14

Hello Everyone!

I just purchased an external mic for my Canon Rebel T5i...

It's a RODE Video Mic I purchased from Walmart for $99 and then bought a dead kitten fluffy cover (another $25) to get rid of wind noise

I plugged it into my microphone input on my camera and did a few test videos with and without it and cannot tell a difference.....

I read my manual and it says once it's plugged in it will take priority over the built in mic int he camera but yet ont he mic instructions it says to set the audio output to mic

that part I do NOT see on my Canon 5Ti
