I've been recording sound with the T4i by setting the levels manually, but since you can't see the levels in real time while recording, I've gotten some clipping..... the last time I recorded I used the camera's automatic levels feature. I'm using an Opteka VM-100 condenser shotgun mic mounted on the camera. I know I read somewhere, that someone warned against using the camera's autolevels, but why not, if it prevents clipping?
