+1 to what Rhett said. Get an XLR mic like a Shure SM58 and get a cord with male XLR on one end and male 1/8" mono jack on the other end.
Another option is to buy a shotgun mic that will sit on top of your camera, but it depends on your application. Third option is wired/wirless Lavalier. Wireless lav would be the best for isolating one person in a crowd, but the most expensive. -- Bill C. http://ems.blip.tv --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > Have you considered buying an XLR->1/4" balanced adapter and a 1/4" > balanced->1/8" adapter?
