Abstract

Disclosed are a microphone mounting structure of a mobile terminal, capable of capturing a sound generated from a subject in an optimum manner while capturing an image and reproducing the captured image, and a using method thereof. In the present invention, a first microphone and a second microphone are arranged on one side surface of a terminal body, in a spaced manner from each other on different axes, so that they can be used in a sound capturing mode. Three or more microphones are arranged on a plurality of surfaces of the terminal body, at various intervals, by interworking with various situation changes. Then, the number of microphones to be used for capturing a sound, and a microphone combination are selected according to a user's behavior scenario. Under such configuration, an optimum audio zooming function can be implemented.
