Rode NTG-2 or AT897 or AT875r
I just got a Canon 550D and need a shotgun mic and a field recorder. I'm pretty settled on the DR-100 for the recorder in my budget.
Any comments on the difference between the three mics? |

Haven't got into that format yet .. but unless you want to record speech I'd get a stereo mic first.
Cheers.

Michael,
If you do some research here you can find your information. when I did it I ended up getting the AT 897 as it was repeated stated that it is the best bang for the buck and often a milestone of comparison. I have a rode video mic which is quite good actually. However I use the At 897 a lot and it has done fine service for me and i use it to capture wildlife up to 50 yards away with effect. Here is a link to a grouse video and the audio was captured with the 897. many of the grouse were 40 to 50 yards off. dale guthormsen
