I have this
VideoSecu High Sensitive Audio Pickup Device External Amplified Tiny Spy Microphone for CCTV Security Camera with Bonus Warning Decal WD6
from Amazon - http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0053V5Z9W/ref=oh_details_o05_s00_i01?ie=UTF8&psc=1
It has standard audio jack which plugs right into the cameras audio in jack.
You will also need a seperate power adaptor and or extension cable to power the mic ( no the camera will not power it) if you don't have a outlet near the camera

Thanks for the links !! While I did not order the mic for my PTZ Pro, I did order it for my Home Automated Living home automation software (no, I didn't go the x10 route on home automation software. I did, years ago, and have since upgraded).
I've been looking for years for a small sensitive microphone, but they were all big money. Hopefully your suggestion will work; if not, I'm only out a few bucks as opposed to hundreds.

OK lets expand on the microphone and now let us know about any speaker that works with this camera that is weather proof enough, or any combination of the two together- I'm all in one unit!!!
