I'm really trying to get the worth of the dollar here as I'm going from one job to the next. Currently I have the T4i and I'll be shooting a music video so I won't need any really good sound (the artist has recorded the song at the studio already). Then a week later I'm doing a video that will need me to record sounds.
So I want to get the Vidpro XM-55. It seems to come with a lot for such a good price. Obviously though I can't just connect it straight into the T4i due to it being an XLR mic. I was going to use a XLR female to 3.5mm male to connect it to the T4i.
Would that adaption lower the quality of the sound? Is the XM-55 even good at audio?
