Handheld... or better: one that can be used both as handheld and on camera/boom... (w/ extra equipment).
I have some good mics already, but nothing usable for work with XH-A1 (too large etc). I'm willing to pay what it costs for acceptable broadcast quality.
Thanks.
'acceptable' would probably differ depending on who you talk to. here's my two cents... get the best shotgun or hyper you can afford, a k-tek wired (or unwired) handgrip with the kssm shock mount, and some wind protection. might be awkward when the mic is visible, but it will be a better all-purpose setup than a dedicated handheld. even though dedicated handheld mics are the most immune to handling noise, putting them on a boom, or anywhere else, can be problematic.
