can i use this mic with the mic out (not using the hotshoe) on a nikon d610?

Im quite sure this is for use only inside Sony hotshoes. this is not for use with a Nikon camera. Only Sony cameras with the appropriate Hot shoe contacts.

That won't work unless you can get clever about giving the mic power. Part of the hotshoe wiring includes the power to the mic as well as the audio outs to the camera. You'd be better off getting a different mic for that camera.

I discontinued using it, generated noise hot shoe adaptor required and not very stable. I used superglue but it still moved around.

I use it on a D300s and it works well. I am not sure if the D610 has the same mount.

No it will not. It is made for the 1 Series cameras like the V1 and J1. Much smaller sensor and lenses than the D610. I don't think there is even a way to make it work with an adapter.

Yes. The X Grip has an accessory shoe on top of it. So you'd mount the mic on top of the X Grip (and not to the camera).

They make an addon mic that mounts on the hotshoe and plugs into a jack on the side of the camera. You should be able to use that port for your purpose.

Yes, it can be used with other mic. Remember an adapter from XLR to miniJack if your mic plug is XLR.With a good mic there is no noise.

hey thanks for the info! as it turns out, my camera DOES have a mic input. boy do I feel stupid :) but i guess I won't need this one after all. I do think that it would work in a pinch, and thanks again for taking the time to respond-SelArom

I wouldn't recommend it. It's not a great microphone, especially for a DSLR camera. For that I'd rather go with an shotgun mic, mounted onto a shock mount and convert an XLR connection to a 1/8" audio jack for your DSLR.

Yes, IF camera will accept 1/8" stereo plug. Mic has screw-type locking ring also. Can't imagine why operator would want to do this unless he wanted to capture audio close to the camera itself.

I'm not sure if the lumix fz200 allows for external mic input capabilities. If it has an external mic input that's a mini jack, then you should be able to use it. I'm not familiar with the lumix, but if it doesn't have a hot/cold shoe mount, then you'll need to rig a mounting location for the mic. Good luck!

Honestly I'm not %100 sure. You would be better off buying a nikon d3200. That does have an external mic plug in and the quality is amazing. I don't use my bell and Howell as much anymore once I bought my Nikon

Well the headset has a dedicated mute button on the controller, so I would assume you could just mute the mic and use a different one.

I'm using the "Rode VIDEOMIC Directional Shotgun Mic w/Mount" with my canon hg10. Is not that expensive, exhibits low noise and offers a switchable high pass filter to reduce unwanted low frequency rumble. I truly recommend you this product.

No..unless u plan on using the mic while it isn't attached to the top of the camera..

I used the mic with the audio/video cable I purchased from Amazon when I bought the camera. You can disconnect the camera if you want and just use the cord. I did go to radio shack and have to get the connections so they may be able to help with knowing what amp/volts are needed and a cord to run it alone.

You can use it for that camera. However, the connector on the microphone is an XLR.. I'm sure you will need an adapter. Example: Hosa XVS101F Right Angle 3.5mm M to XLR F 1 Foot.

There's no reason it wouldn't work with anything that has a mic input, but its designed to be handsfree with a hot shoe mount, so it might not be ideal. Really depends on what you're trying to shoot, but yes, it'll function!
