I'm shooting wedding for a relative.
I want to have interviews on tape, so friends/family can comment on the
wedding or offer their blessings.
In the past I relied on on-camera mic. The result is always too much
background noise. I want better result.
TV news crew use a hand held omni mic to do this. One interview mic that
gets mentioned often is electrovoice 635.
Question is, does it have high enough output so that after a beachtek
XLR-to-mini conversion, there is enough to be recorded by a camcorder like
trv900? Or would I need a preamp?
Is it also possible to use a camera mounted short shotgun mic (e.g. AT897)
to achive similar result? It would be more convenient to not have to lug a
mic+cable around. What is the pros and cons of the two approaches?
