QuestionIs there some sort of adapter that will allow me to hook up an external mic?
Asked 8 years ago by Cam.
- Answer No, the Nikon COOLPIX A900 camera does not have an adapter, nor a Mic jack for plugging in an external microphone. This camera can record in stereo and has a Wind Noise Reduction feature that can be turned on and off. This feature helps to reduce the sound that is made when wind passes over the microphone.

Asked 8 years ago by Espy.

QuestionDoes it come with a wall charger Saw a video review that shows it doesn't, If not will the one from my Coolpix P520 work
Asked 8 years ago by JT50.
- Answer The charger for your COOLPIX P520 will not charge the battery in the COOLPIX A900. The P520 used a Nikon ENEL5 while the A900 uses a Nikon ENEL12. If you want it to charge in the wall and not in the camera, you can purchase the Nikon MH65 battery charger to charge the battery outside the camera.
