Yeah, but for a run and gun shooter, this is impossible.

But, one hand on the camera, shooting, one hand on a short shotgun mic,
no shock mount, headphones on, does better than you would think...

If you are 10-20 feet away, you can do it all, it isn't as tough as
you'd think.

You actually fall into a groove of matching image and sound. If you
mispoint or mishandle the mic, you hear it, shout "go again" and keep
rolling.

BUT, getting that decent shotgun and a camera with no AGC at a
reasonable price is tough!

Panasonic GS400 plus ?Mic? = THE SOLUTION

Still waiting to hear if anybody has a GS400 and Mic and their comments
on the match up...

Don't let me be the test animal...
