I remember being told years ago that to connect a mic with an XLR cable to a video camera (with a 3.5mm input), a particular device is needed, rather than just a XLR-3.5mm plug adaptor. Does anyone know if that’s the case with more recent video equipment and what are the standard options for this device?

I think what you mean is a Saramonic box, i.e. a Saramonic audio adapter. It depends a lot on the video camera, but even high end ones that I used needed this to connect to XLR. What I bought is the Saramonic AX101 Audio Adapter. Worked well and is lightweight, so I can recommend that.

Amazing. Thank you!
I’ve just seen another one on an equipment list that may be more expensive: BeachTek DXA-2T
