Mic questions for the DSLR

Depends on the camera. If you use a t2i or 5D, you can use Magic Lantern software which allows you to use the A/V out cable to connect a live headphone monitor.

In fact, without ML installed for more precise control of gain, levels and metering (not to mention audio monitoring via headphones), I would say recording audio directly into any DSLR is likely a bad idea. Most folks around here will tell you to either use ML, or if its not available record externally (Zoom H4n, Tascam, etc) and sync the audio + video in post production.
