I want to plug this into my camera but both the xlr outputs are the same so I would need an adapter right?

Yes, though the adapters from mini-xlr to standard xlr are rare, and expensive. It might be just as economical to buy a shure radio transmitter. It would also be more practical than running an xlr cable from the talent to the camera.

It is a 1/8" stereo plug, so you won't need an adapter to record into a stereo jack. However, as SlateEd mentioned, the left and right channels will be the same.

Depending on the type of camera you have, there should be an audio/video port on the camera itself, and that would determine what type of cable to use that will plug into the camera

This is a standard xlr connector on mic. Standard xlr cables will work. If you need a 1/4" input you can get a xlr to 1/4" adapter/transformer which will impedence match the 2 connections.

You can connect it directly. That's how I've always used them. Wouldn't hurt to have an extra XLR to give yourself more space.

It depends on the input plug of the amp. generally a standard XLR male to female plug will work

The camera doesn't need an xlr input. You need an intermediary device or you can use rca input, but the converter sucks and adds a lot of noise to your audio.

if the adapter isn't right, I'd ask the seller if you somehow got the Nikon version, which would have a different cord.

Yes. That is exactly what I did with mine. You may need an adapter depending on the stereo input connections.

Nope. I own that mic and it has a USB connector, not an XLR. Only buy mics with xlr or rca connectors.

If your camcorder has an xlr audio input, I don't see why it wouldn't work. Keep in mind the preamp needs to be plugged into a 120v receptacle.

Yeah, I guess, but it seems overly complicated, and unnecessary. I'll assume you want to track both the USB signal, and once you go through all that stereo adapter business, your gonna run it into the computers headphone/mic input? Then you have to convince your computer to record both the USB signal, and the now degraded signal coming from the 1/4" TS to 1/8" TRS Y adapter input simultaneously. If you can do it than you can do it but why not simply duplicate the stereo USB tracks in your DAW?

yes only get the adapter for rca and do the same for audio an connect like it is a cable box or another camcorder .

I'm a little confused by the statement "same input and output"--so I will try to answer best I can. The input and output jacks are male and female, one goes to mic and other goes to the mixer/sound board. I'm mostly assuming the input/output question is that the cable has the same voltage/impedence throughout. I have been buying adapters that up the power as well as go to a 1/4 inch jack. My four track recorder does not have phantom power (to power the mic) so the low-z to high-z adapter is my way of powering the mic. Hope that makes sense and answers the question.

Sorry, but I really don't know. I went to a camera cable website (don't remember which, just googled) and looked for compatible cables for my camera.

Your camera has a 3.5mm diameter external microphone input. I suspect that is a line-level input. Check the specs. The PG14/PG185 has both 1/4" and XLR outputs, so you have choice of line level or mic level outputs. With a 1/4" or XLR to 3.5 adaptor, it is possible to easily connect the two devices. The mic works well outdoors. Background/wind noise tolerable. That's what I know. Others may have used this combo, and I hope they are here to give you a more definitive answer. Final resort, call Canon and Shure.

You will need an adapter that takes the xlr connector to USB, and also provides 48 volts. I use the Lexicon Lambda. It works well. Audio technical also makes s similar mic that is designed for USB.
