Shotgun mic recommendations - DSLR
« on: August 20, 2015, 08:59:36 AM »
Looking for recommendations on a mid level shotgun microphone for my D7100. We have more expensive setups at work so I'm hoping to get a few field recommendations without checking out gear. Primary use will be to film hunts & wildlife for personal enjoyment.

So far I've been looking low to mid range mics like:


Thanks!

Do you use this one or another?

I have this one in my shopping cart now but the reviews indicate a bit of a background hum.

I have this one and it works really well.

Thanks - I ended up going with the Nikon only because of the Amazon reviews hitting the Rode pretty hard. We'll see how wise my decision was in a few days! :-)
