you dont need 816 , this microphon particalar good for super expirience booman with good hands and super boom ( no **** from rode or vdb or eve n k-t ek )
as the microphone is super heavy with blimp and bad boom make the boom start vibrate .
also this one is super tight pattern which doesnt alow even small mistake
i have one itused only when i dont have anyother choice or want to panish the booman , and i wouldnt work good inside 9 eco from walls and low celling )
you better look for something as 416 p or t or at 4073 to replace the rode for extirials and no reverb spaces interers
but better make shure you have good hyper for places where the shot gun get hits from the walls ( glass windows , hard celling and hard floor)
about hypers , that is depends what the budget , i prefer mbho ( 604/603 with 500) to neuman 185 , not to mention you can add cardioid capsule relativly cheap for situation you need to boom over a bunch of people so the caverege would be much better ( and the ka-200 cardioid is one of my faivors to this kind of work , almost the same pattern as mkh-40)
about used mixers - shure 33 is nice start , but you can also look for audio development 260 which is exellent choice ( 4 channel ) , very quit preamps , very rubust desighn or for audio development pico slide mixers - these could be found relativly cheap as well 600-800 usd , same preamps , t or phantom power and work with external 12 v dc .
another way is to find used pd-4 dat recorder which has 3 input mixer and line outs and record direct to camera + back up on dat
adont get it wrong , there is nothing bad o record on dat is good as any other 16 bit device and the preamps on pd-4 are good enouth to make hollywood films as well ( you can find used in good shape for 1200 and less)
