Hey all,

I am using a dvx100b and i am getting ready to shoot a short film over the summer. i have the cam and all the other things i need, i just dont have a mic.

can you guys give some advice on what mics are good to use (that are reasonable in price)

i want a shotgun mic with a fishpole and shock mount, just a basic setup to get good sound...

im a student and i just bought the cam so im running low on funds :(

any advice?

thanks a bunch!

Numerous discussions have been posted with regards to "what mic on a budget" as well as boom poles. I would say give a $$$ number amount, read the replies, and then use search function to see why that mic/ pole was recomended. You learn the pros and cons of the item and see if it will work for you
 
Exactly right, searching will definitely give you the information you need. Also, check out the stickies at the top of the forum.
 
In the stickies at the top of the forum you will find several mic kits based on budget. Remember, it isn't just buying a mic...there are LOTS of other pieces that have to also be purchased.
