Heelllooooo!
So I have a new T3i and ultimately want to shoot short films. Obviously this requires something other than the on board mic, so my question is:
What are the best unidirectional condenser shotgun mics with an XLR output that is good for capturing dialogue both inside and outside, all for under $200.
A tall order I know, but it's bound to exist somewhere. I was also wondering how the booming setup would work, I figure at the very least, the mic XLR output could go through an XLR to 1/8th stereo adapter cord and directly into the camera (or through a splitter for monitoring then the cam.) Later on though, I could have the mic hooked up XLR to XLR to a mixer or something and be monitored and adjusted and from there XLR to 1/8th into the camera. I have a Tascam US-122 so this could provide phantom power, but the only output is analog...
I'm basically just a young, broke-ish student who wants to make awesome films so any help would be great!
Thanks in advance,
~Daniel
