Hi I have purchased a Canon xm2 and want to make a small documentary on the area that I live in, I need to know about sound, I have read that most camera's mic's are not the best in the world so need a little advice on wireless clip on mics - receivers etc, being a complete novice I'm not sure how to set things like this up with my camera, one other small point - money....... oh yes I hear you say, well cash is a little tight so will need a good sound system on a cash budget.
Hope any one can help
Paul
Oh by the way I live in the UK :)
