Audio for Video - Comparing the camera mic vs. Rode VideoMicro and Audio Technica ATR3350

Do you want to improve the audio in your video recordings?

No matter if you use a smartphone or a big camera, the right mic for the job can make a big difference in audio quality. After our recent PPN More Gear Show #13 where we discussed the basics of recording video with your camera, we also covered the audio part to go along with your video. I promised in the episode to give recording video a shot and share it with our audience. And to make the first video helpful, I decided to test three different audio setups for in camera audio recording.

And yes, the video is supposed to be in B&W - I just like it better that way ;-)

Let me know what you think and if you would like to see more videos like this at PPN in the future.
