Hey guys, got a bit of a problem that I'm sure someone else has encountered and knows a way around it.
I use an XHA1 with a Letus Elite and a field monitor attached to the hotshoe on the camera. Now, my problem is that having the monitor attached to the hotshoe requires me to attach the rode shotgun mic to the mic holder that comes off of the handle, and because the letus adapter causes a slight vibration due to the vibrating ground glass, the sort of "vvvvvvvv" sound it makes going through the cameras body is then transferred to the mic. does that make sense? you can't hear the vibrating adapter just with your ear, but when the mic is clamped down to the camera, it picks up the vibration through the body of the camera to the body of the mic.
how can I get around this? I need to use my monitor, and I'm pretty sure I can only attach it to the hotshoe, which then doesn't allow me to attach the mic to the hotshoe.
