Hello I am in the process of starting to use my Rebel T6 to record video content using the Vimeo application. The sound quality from my mac isn't great and I wish to upgrade it using an external microphone. Before doing so I thought I would double check whether these is any option for using an external micro phone with the Rebel T6? So far the only information I have found states that it's not possible to use an external microphone only the inbuilt microphone. Many thanks for your assistance in advance!

Greetings,

The camera has a built in Mic. There is no input for an external microphone, so you'll have experiment with something you can connect to your MAC. That will be any external mic with a 3.5mm connection.
