Wireless Mic Recommendations at DVinfo.net

Hi guys,

Following on from this post, can anyone suggest a good wireless mic to go with my XM2 ?

I want to film someone as they are walking around commentating on the surroundings.
I find (as im sure everyone else does) the onboard mic insufficient for this.

So, i guess I am after some kind of tie-clip wireless mic set-up ?The person who is talking to the camera will never be more than 15 feet away (if that helps).

This will usually be outside, so a plug-in power supply unit is no good.

My budget is about £ 250. ($450 aprox)

Many Thanks,
Richard.

I split Richard's post from a thread in the GL2/XM2 forum for better topical exposure.
