Rode Microphones Videomic Pro Super Cardioid Condenser Microphone $229 The RDE VideoMic Pro is a true shotgun microphone designed for use with camcorders, DSLR cameras and portable audio recorders as a source of primary and reference audio.At the heart of the VideoMic Pro is a high resolution 1/2" condenser capsule that provides broadcast quality audio via a 3.5mm mini-jack connector (outputting the mono signal to both left and right channels). A super-cardioid polar pattern ensures that surrounding audio is minimized, and your recording is focused on the subject in front of the camera.An innovative suspension system separates the VideoMic Pro capsule and electronics from its mount, providing isolation from external physical factors that may cause unwanted rumble and vibrations in the microphone. A lightweight and flexible yet robust multi-strand cable provides significantly lower noise transference than traditional audio cable while ensuring a high definition signal. Easily accessible on the rear face of the microphone are the power, filter and level controls. In addition to the microphone's native 40Hz-20kHz response a selectable high-pass filter at 80Hz is available, which will prevent low end noise such as air conditioners and traffic from being recorded. Below these controls are the level settings, which attenuate or boost the recorded level as required. The -10dB level attenuation (or PAD) is ideal for recording loud sound sources, such as live music, motorsport, or interviews where the subject is very close to the camera. The +20dB level boost is designed for use with DSLR cameras such as the Canon 5DMkII, Canon 7D, Canon 1D, Canon 550D/T2i, Canon 60D, Nikon D7000, Nikon D5100, Panasonic GH1 and Panasonic GH2. This boost in the microphone output allows the user to reduce the camera's preamp level (or mic-input level), effectively reducing the amount of noise generated by the camera's comparatively low quality audio circuitry.The microphone uses a standard sized shoe mount for on camera use, and features a 3/8" thread in the base of the mount for easy boom pole mounting. Note that cameras with proprietary shoe mounts will require an adaptor or alternative mounting solution.The VideoMic pro is battery powered, and provides over 70 hours recording from a single 9V battery. The RDE VideoMic Pro compact directional on-camera microphone is covered by RDE Microphones' industry leading 10 year warranty.Broadcast recording quality condenser microphoneCompact form factor (150mm/6 length)Ultra lightweight (85g/3oz)9V battery powered - over 70 hours use (alkaline)Integrated shock mountingIntegrated foam windscreen3.5mm stereo mini-jack output (dual mono)Two step High Pass Filter (flat, 80Hz)Three position level control (-10dB, 0, +20dB)Camera shoe mount with 3/8 thread for easy boompole mounting10 year warranty |

What microphone should I use?
I'm planning on getting a Canon Vixia HF R10.
I have no knowledge on microphones.
My mic budget is $100
Should I get a shotgun mic, condenser, zoom, or a lapel?
What specific mic should I use?
A Behringer B1? How does it work? By laptop, camcorder input, wireless?
would this microphone also work for hf r10 or JUST hf10?: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=190392275358&rvr_id=&crlp=1_263602_263622&UA=WXF%3F&GUID=cc5edc3f1280a0aad4d77037fe1699fe&itemid=190392275358&ff4=263602_263622
Also, tell me the differences between each mic.
I plan to do music, vlogging, and acting.
I hope I'm not asking too many questions.
Thanks in advance
i also do not want my microphone to need to hook up to a lap top.
and audio should be in sync with video.
so no separate recording.
i want the sound to go directly to the camera through input or just amplifying
Please see my answer to your more recent similar question for the definitions of these types of microphones (they're not mutually exclusive): http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AvYYqGYnL22gAaRqk51TAR3sy6IX;_ylv=3?qid=20100524160653AAzIBh7&show=7#profile-info-0l6ePu4daa
--------
The microphone you linked to will connect to the HF-R10, because it does have a mic in jack.
You won't be able to use it on the camera for handheld use, because (according to the specs) neither one of these has a full-sized accessory shoe to mount it on. The HF-10 has only a "mini advanced" shoe (for proprietary Canon mics and lights) and the HF-R10 has no accessory shoe at all. On a tripod, though, that doesn't matter because the mic you linked to (at least in its photo) shows it comes with a tripod shoe adapter that goes between the camera and the tripod and provides a shoe to mount the mic.
--------
For vlogging, just the fact that you want to use an external microphone shows you're ahead of the pack. I would use the shotgun/zoom mic for ease of use (point it at where you're going to be in front of the camera), but if you wear a lapel mic you'll sound even better. Either would be better audio than a lot of videos people put online.
For acting, you could mic all the actors, mix them, and record the mix (or if it's just you, or a small tight group, try the shotgun/zoom mic).
For music? If it's just you and a guitar or keyboard, you could try just the zoom/shotgun mic.
--------
If you reconsider making a separate recording to sync up in editing, that's how a lot of pro videos and movies are made...
For a a music video, I would record the music first in a studio, or obtain the CD of the band, or make a good live recording through a mixer. Then play that recording back when you shoot, and lip-sync it (you and/or others can actually sing out loud along with the played-back music performance, or just move your lips). Shoot it several times/ways, and edit the best together.
For acting, you could do "looping" aka "ADR (automatic dialog replacement)" which is to record the sound from the performance in front of the camera only as a reference, then bring the actor(s) back into the studio to re-record their lines in a more controlled environment while they watch their performance on the screen -- it's called looping because you do it over and over until you get it right.
