Re: Mic recommendation for Sony HVR-A1U?

i'm with saltman re: running the mics separate...a camera-mounted mic isn't ideal for concert situations, since any movement of the camera will result in a change in the audio

dunno if you've seen the Gear Lust forum, but there's many mic possibilities there:
http://www.thetradersden.org/forums/...ad.php?t=52104

a single-point stereo mic can be used if yer not needing a shotgun mic...something like the Rode NT4 can work [i've never used one for this personally, but have heard it delivers good results]...i've also heard of folks who have rigged up mounts on their cam for a pair of miniature condensers [DPA, Schoeps, etc]

but running mics on a stand separate would be yer "best sound quality" route
