I've noticed that the front end of the HPX has a 5 pin audio connection for a stereo mic.
Just wondering if anyone has converted 5 pin input down to 3 pin XLR safely & successfully, sending phantom for legacy mics, splitting a mono mic to both channels, etc?
I know this camera isn't out yet, but I didn't think this was the first one to employ the design (a nice one, but a temporary gotcha out of the box if you don't get the mic).
I have a Schoeps shotgun that I like to use, and would rather plug it in the front, than end up snapping off a port in the back.
Now these are good problems if this is indeed a complaint (not) - eh? This should be a great cam...
