Group(s),
Just spent $1100 for a new Panasonic GS400 and I have to say the image
this camera delivers is very, very good. Comparable to a GL2 and very
close to Sony VX/PD cams. For the money, most bang for the buck, it is
the best deal out there in the Mini-DV 3CCD realm.
Aside from the great image quality, I really bought this camera for the
audio. You can switch the AGC off and go totally manual with this
camera, monitoring manual audio levels on the LCD monitor. Something
you can't do with a Canon GL1 or Sony VX2000, TRV900 etc., This is SO
critical for getting decent audio.
SO, that being said. This camera has a mini-jack that will supply
phantom power. What mic set up would be decent with this camera.
Is there a microphone (perferably shotgun) out there that is as great a
value as this camera?
I know particular cameras respond diffferently to different external
mics, I'm hoping someone out there also has a GS400 and is willing to
share mic info.
Thanks.
