You prefer a connection to a mic rather than a cam with a built-in mic?

Yes. Definitely cam without internal mic or at least possibility to connect external mic. I need sensititive and powerful mic like microseven is and now I'm trying to search cheap Poe cam for The mic.

OK.
3 more questions so we can best help:
  • For outdoor use?
  • Budget in US Dollars?
  • Camera form factor (turret/eyeball, dome, bullet, etc.)

Indoor use. It might be little cold at winter but no rainwater or snow etc.
Budget. I live in Europe so euro is pretty much same as dollar..let's say..max. 200$. Less is better..
Camera form factor does not matter. It could be anything because it only provides possibility to mic use.

I have some cheapo Revotech indoor cameras that I purchased strictly for their having audio. This particular one come with a mic. I found that the audio with the included mic was about the same as when I attached a Microseven mic. A neighbor about 500 meters away has dogs in a kennel and they sound very close through the mic. I have it mounted in a barn with the mic hanging outside.
On a side note, the camera works quite well also though it does not have IR.

Revotech must have really good quality and powerful mic then. I haven't yet tested microseven bullet mic but I red that as poe powered mic it is really powerful. I have few tp link tapo cameras with internal mic and they are not good at all when it comes to audio.
