[Q] Camera/Microphone Question

[sixteen2nd]

After several of my videos came out sounding muffled or with no audio I did a test and found the microphone used to record video is the same as you talk into for calls (bottom of the phone).

My questions are:

What is the pin hole next to the camera lens?

Why would you design a camera with the microphone facing away from the subject you are shooting (and in my case put it in a place where you would hold the camera)?

The inc2 has several mics, which are what the pinholes are. What rom are you running?

I'm running SkyRaider Zeaus which seems to use the Sense 3.0 camera. Do different ROM's and different camera apps use different mics?

The Inc 2 only has 2 mics, the bottom of the phone pin hole, and the top of the phone pinhole. The top is for noise canceling.
