What is the cheapest camcorder with line or mike input?

[beevomusic]

I've just spent the best part of an hour trying to get an answer to this question. I 'chatted' to a Kenny on the live chat on Sony website and when I asked for the cheapest model with line/mike input he told me this:

"The cheapest in the range, HDR-CX190E, got high quality picture, great zoom, easy to carry,low light control, among other standard features. You can buy this online"

However; a review of the specs on that product here:

http://www.sony.co.uk/product/cam-high-definition-on-memory-stick/hdr-cx190e/technical-specification...

shows no line or mike input - unless I've missed something - if so great - let me know

So does anyone know the present cheapest Sony digital camcorder with a line/mike input?

Thank you for your time.

Hi beevomusic, welcome to the Sony Forums

You probably need to go up to the CX250E, which has a stereo mic jack.

Cheers

Thanks very much Mick for your help. I'll look into that.

I have a SONY HDR-PJ780VE and I have mic inputs (pink 3.5mm jack).

I put music into it, via 2 of -25db attenuators in series for each channel.  SONY said this wouldn't work - but I have been recording this way for a while.
