The Eumig S905 does not have the same number of ports as the S910. Looking at the specs, it's unclear to me if I'll be able to input the sound from the S905 to my audio mixer and then to my camcorder's microphone input as I can with the S910.

Is this possible with the S905 using the 2-pin DIN output jack?

S905 PORTS:
input terminal: Microphone (0.3-100 mV, 9 kOhm), Auxiliary (50 mV-3 V, 470 kOhm)
input jacks: 5-pin European DIN
output terminal: External Speaker (4-6 Ohm)
output jack: 2-pin DIN

It should be possible although you may need some trial and error in connecting the wires to the DIN plug's pins. But keep in mind the 905 is a main track-only projector whereas the 910 can playback both tracks; so you can use the former only if your film has a mono track on the main track only; same applies if your soundtrack has elements on both tracks (albeit still being monophonic).

Thanks for that clarification. I decided to order an S936 which has similar ports to the S910. I'm looking forward to seeing how it compares to what I currently have.
