Advice about an extension cable for microphone of my camera

[Adriano Moroni]

Hello, I would like to use the microphone from my camera and put an extension cable on it to be able to do interviews, or even other things like singing. I had seen this cable: A notice to our users Can you tell me if the microphone will work without problems? I would also like to know if I can connect the extension jack on my Asus Zenbook, laptop, to be able to record voice.
THANK YOU for your kind info.

What connector plug does the mic have?
Most unbalanced mics w/ 3.5mm plugs can be extended to 3, 4 or 5 meters for interviews... Any longer could induce noise. Look for a 'shielded' female to male 3.5 to 3.5mm. Some headphone extension cables are not shielded so steer clear of those.
The 10 foot Hosa MHE-110 shielded headphone extension cable should work

OTOH, Balanced mics with XLR connectors can easily be extended to 30+ meters w/o problem by chaining XLR cables together.. 90 meters or so with good quality 'star quad' mic cable.

On this board, they don't usually do multiple posts - I think most peoples the new posts button, so see every topic, rather than like on some forums you only look at your favourites.
