I recently bought this camera from a local Best Buy. It was in my price range, and the video quality was about what I was looking for. The sound quality sucks on it, but I figured that could be fixed with a good quality microphone. My pet peeve is bad sound, so looking at the camera and through the user's manual, it doesn't look like there is a mic input on the camera. Did I just get screwed over by the Sales Rep or is there some magical adapter I can plug in somewhere that will work with it?
In that vein, I'm looking for a good microphone to use. I've heard that shotgun mics are the way to go, but I'm really new to making my own films. My budget is fairly low, but I'm willing to skip a few meals to save up some money. Any suggestions? Thanks!
