Well reviewed DSLR etc external microphone

[woytovich]

I'm likely going to give this one a go... cheap alternative to the Rode etc. Good reviews on the interwebs....

Please do let us know what you find...a decent sounding but disposable mic would be a nice thing to know about!

Received it last night. Well packaged, seemingly well built. My 5D is being borrowed so a test will have to wait some....

Here is a name-brand version that isn't as cheap. I am using it, and the audio quality is excellent. (it also doesn't require a battery)

Remember...the most important thing about your video is your audio.
