According to
http://sw.nokia.com/id/81ba2105-f16d-4c2b-a958-542ede07c7bc/Nokia_AV_Hardware_Interface_Specification_v1_0_en.pdfyou
can use yellow plug for audio input. For XLR connections you have to
use
adapters, try to google for phmxmh, but that may not work for all
microphones. Or you will need a converter from balanced to unbalanced, but
it can be bulky and may need an external power.
