More information needed; what exactly are you using for external audio and how is it all connected?

Greetings,
If the MIC or 3rd party product I was plugging into my camera(s) caused 2 to fail in a row, I might consider a different brand or it as culprit.

I’m using a saramonic lapel mic system so the receiver is connected to the camera’s audio jack .
The MIC input on the camera is looking for a low level mic signal. You need to check the output level of your receiver. Make sure that it is not putting out a high level output, line level signal.

Thank you to all
@Waddizzle ; I’m not sure how to check the levels the receiver is just a tiny thing that sits on top of my camera
Alll you need to do is check the written specifications for the receiver, an bone up on the different types of audio signals.
Gald to see that you go the issue resolved with a simple fix. I suspect the problem was a signal level mismatch.

I would suspect that the audio would distort if the level was high enough to blow out the camera. The issue appears to be a radio reception problem, not a camera problem.
