HI. I have just bought this camcorder and am very pleased with its performance. However I have a small problem which is. When I am using headphones while recording using the built in microphone, I can't hear any sound via the headphones. While recording using the external microphone a Sennheiser MKE 300, I can hear the sound being recorded very clearly. On playback the headphones play back ok on both types of microphones. I would appreciate if somebody can tell me what is wrong. If it is a setting, I have to say I can't get far into the menu. All I can find is video recording setup and nothing beyond that, whatever arrows I click. I think I have followed the instructions given in the manual but go me They are a bit confusing. By the way I am coming up to 90 years of age and that's my excuse. I am still making award winning videos though. Thanks in advance for any solution.

I have solved my problem. Thanks to anybody who might of replied.
