Is it possible to hook up an external mic to a Nikon D90 to get better sound for video?

Question

I'm getting bad sound quality on video taken with my NIKON D90. I think the mic is bad so I need to know if it is possible to plug a microphone into it some how?

Answer 1

Unfortunately, it is not possible to hook up an external mic to this specific Nikon model. Your options are:

1. Record sound with an external mic such as the Zoom H4N and synch it in post (feel free to reach out for help with this)
2. Buy another Nikon model like the D7000 that you can plug an external mic into

Hope this helps!
