Because the mic is attached to the camera, it will naturally be some distance from your subject. There’s a perfectly reasonable explanation for this. It’s also likely that you’re not too impressed with the quality. Unless you’re shooting with some high-end cinematography camera, odds are that the camera you use has one or more mics built-in. Whether you’re working in an audio production studio or shooting in the field, there’s a mic type for you in your sound studio equipment. And at every point in between, there are specialty microphone types for practically any situation when recording audio for video. At the low-end are the mics in our cell phones, which work well for communication, but not much else.
At the high-end, there are large-diaphragm studio condenser mics that excel at capturing voice and music. From that point on, the variations seem endless. The primary goal of any mic for video production is the same: convert acoustic energy into an electrical signal for use in recording. Microphones are an interesting category of video tools, in a geeky sort of way. When purchasing a microphone, consider your needs, the subject, how close you can be to the subject and the appropriate form factor.Every mic has a pickup pattern, the “shape” of where it can and cannot hear.When a microphone is far from its source, it can pick up sounds you don’t want in your recording, so record with a dedicated mic as close as possible to the subject.
