Question

Do 3rd part hotshoe mics work on Samsung NX Cameras?

Jul 30, 2016 12:56PM PDT

I plan to get a Samsung NX300 and I was wondering if for example a canon DM-100 hotshoe mic would work on it, or a Sony ECM-GZ1M that doesnt use a cord would work with the camera, as Samsungs ED-EM10 Mic is discontinued I believe, as I can not find it anywhere. Thanks in advanced!

In the USA, it's a toll free call. In other countries use Samsung.com to see if they have a line. Also, there's a chat feature at samsung.com here. You could have an answer in minutes.
