Re: Digital mics - need some helpful info

Isn't a "digital mic" just a mic with an A/D converter built-in? Is it correct to assume the only advantage would be if the converter is better than what's in the camera?

As long as the mic/interface can be powered by the camera and pass audio through the shoe. I briefly had a Sony XLR-K2M and it was great in these regards, though I don't think it was digital.
