Hi

I have this Audio-Technica ATW-T101 LAV wireless and would like to buy and adapter to plug the mic directly to my video camera XLR input. Here's a picture. Where can I find such an adapter?

That's a TA5F connector and checking the manual onlinr it looks to be wired the same as lavs for Lectrosonics. You want an adapter/power supply that does two things - adapts TA5F to XLR plus, most importantly, takes the 48v phantom power and converts it to the ~5v power the mic needs. Just using a straight-through adapter without the power supply components is liable to fry the mic. This 'Eumel' from Ambient should do it for you... http://www.ambient.de/en/products/ambient-recording/mic-power-supply/emp/emp5s.html
 
Or if I make sure Phantom is switched off on my Sony FS700 camera and I select the MIC option from the LINE/MIC/MIC +48V? Would that feed the LAV mic with enough power?
