Simple question about the Panasonic audio adapter: Does it include a cable that connects it to the AG-HMC40 audio input? If it's not included, is there a special configuration cable that must be ordered or is it a standard cable that can be purchased anywhere?

Thanks for the assistance.
 
Thanks for the quick response. That's the answer I was hoping for, but it wasn't clear at the Panasonic site.
 
On the HMC40 there's a special connector with a cover that reads "xlr adapter" on it. The cable from the XLR adapter plugs into that port and when connected, the audio recording menus on the HMC40's screen are disabled. With the XLR adapter connected, all audio levels and controls are changed on the adapter itself, not on the HMC40.
 
Safety Tip!!!!... make sure that the cable from the XLR adapter into the camera is completely seated (you will feel a positive snap in when it is). Otherwise, you will think your sound is engaged and, unless you are watching the sound levels or monitoring through headphones, you will have lots of video with absolutely no sound ;)
