Anyone shooting video with their dSLRs? I'm thinking about picking up a mic.
Ya..I use a Sennheiser MK400 mic that sits on the hotshoe. More popular model would be the Rhode shotgun mic but it's just massive. LOL. I also have a Zoom H4N digital sound recorder that I hook up to a PA system or a sounboard to get clear signals from.

I definitely want something to record the audio using my 60D, I don't really want to have to sync it up later. I actually was looking at the two you mentioned. The Rode did look huge but I had no frame of reference to be able to tell if that would be a problem or not.
Check this out too for video. It's pretty dope but I'm too chicken s*** to try the firmware upgrade. http://magiclantern.wikia.com/wiki/Magic_Lantern_Firmware_Wiki
