Tip of The Week
Ever wonder how you can attach a microphone to your digital camcorder? There are basically three ways to do this: by wire, wirelessly, or through an accessory, a hot or an intelligent shoeUsing a wired microphone is simple and very common, but wires can sometimes get cumbersome. The wireless option is good because you do away with wires, but you may then run into problems like errant radio signals or running out of batteries. The hot shoe option allows you to add a better microphone to your camera and does not require additional batteries or wires.
Whichever option you choose, remember that quality sound improves a production tremendously. So I'd definitely recommend you look into microphones if you want to film a professional video.
