How to monitor audio while recording

[NashvilleDan]

I just purchased a Vixia hf g50 and and have added a 10" monitor to view while recording.  It is very important to be able to know that I am getting good audio while recording. I don't want to find out later that my audio was poor.  too late then!

Can I monitor the audio that is being recorded DURING THE RECORDING?  (I know that I can monitor the audio with headphones while playing back).

Much thanks!

Yes, you can monitor the audio with headphones during recording;  See HF-G50 User Manual, page 73 'Using Headphones'

You can also monitor on-screen, and adjust, the audio recording level of the built-in microphone or an external microphone connected to the MIC terminal. For that you need to select the Custom 'Audio Scene' option; page 68, 'Audio Recording Level'
