Canon 1D X Movies and Sound

expatinasia:
I believe the 1D X does not have a headphone jack, so how are those with them monitoring sound on the videos they do? (no comments about external recorders please)

I realise that video may not be the primary function of the 1D X but it is a function.

Thanks.

Videoshooter:
They aren't.

MrBeavis5:
The 1D X and 5D III both have headphone jacks for audio monitoring, the 5D II and 7D do not.

MrBeavis5:
Ok, so the 1D X doen't have a headphones jack.... thats stupid!

The only answer is to have an interface device of some sort (I didn't say the R word)

Something like a juiced link or Beachtek will give you XLR audio input and headphone monitoring at the mic stage.

I use a beachtek on my cameras, do a test record, play back to make sure cam is getting clean feed.  Line up mic using VU's.  And thats it.

I know its not the answer you want to hear, but I'm afraid that other than 'they aren't', or mentioning the R word, it's the only answer available to me.
