A:AnswerHi, Peyton! This camera does not have a (hot) shoe mount. It has a built-in microphone but doesn't have a microphone jack. Check here for more details: https://helpguide.sony.net/dsc/1620/v1/en/contents/TP0000739063.html. -Vincent
A:AnswerThe sound is good, you have to speak loud. Or not a lot of. Oise in background. Yes you can but its low. And the volume doesn't go up as high as you would like for playback.
A:AnswerHi, Q! This camera does not have a Bluetooth but has Wi-Fi. If you are looking for a camera that has both Bluetooth and WiFi, check out the Sony DSC-RX100M7. -Vincent
A:AnswerHi, Joey! Unfortunately, it doesn't support external mics. We can't guarantee full compatibility with third-party tripods. Please refer to this link for the list of compatible accessories:
