Turn on the phantom power switch for the XLR jack/mic you are using, see page 48 of the manual.

How do they compare to the Sennheiser ME66/67?

You can read the specifications from their respective web sites adn compare them. And you can find some reviews if you google on the web. But mics have to be heard to appreciate their differences, and different folks tend to prefer the tone of different microphones. Some might argue that the Rode provide 90% of the quality for 60% of the cost, but opinions will vary.

The link you give says that the SM5 comes with adapters so it will fit different size camera mic mounts. I believe there are two basic sizes uses, and the XH-A1 has the larger size. K-tek makes a similar system for it's shock mounts. The "system" is just a short tube (there are two sizes available) that goes in the camera mic mount. The tube has a threaded bolt sticking out to screw on the shock mount. To use the K-tek tube you have to have a shock mount with a side hole. The mic then threads through the shock mount. |

5200 mAh means the battery can maintain 5200mA (37.44W) for totally 1 hour, not per hour. If the camera can run for 5 hours with BP950 (~ 7.2V). It consumes about 7.5W (Canon spec states 6.9W). If the difference between the two microphone is 1.5mA at 48V (phantom power is 48V, right?), the power consumption difference is only 0.072W. It's only about 1 % of your camera power consumption. |
