Frage von shipoffools:Hello,
I would times Your answers and opinions concerning interest. (... and if there is any need for it.)
The theme of "Microphone" is yes in the video - and the film is known to be a much discussed area, because a good sound is just as important as the picture itself
Again and again we read here and in other forums similar questions: "Who can me a Microphone for XY recommend my camera?" or "Is this or that Micro better?" etc.
The answers to these questions are (our own experiences, feelings and preferences accordingly) always subjective and sometimes more, sometimes less helpful.
There are often "compared apples with pears", synonymous here and if there is a viable and professional response will be read.
In search of an objective comparison of video test microphones (when compared with objective tests may be similar to that ...), Camcorders-Comparison/Test of Slashcam, I was unfortunately not been found.
There are so many in the www Comparison of microphones, such as studio microphones (EUR upwards of 1000 ...) or a variety of microphones musician (drums mics or mics for guitars, etc.), but so far I am unfortunately not succeeded a similar comparison test for that division to be found.
If it is a comparative test on Video -/Filmmikrofone there, and I simply was unable to find him, I would be grateful for a reference.
Otherwise it is a suggestion s.slashCAM times such a value to start. o)
Would be interesting because, for example, tests and comparisons in the areas of
- Stereo Microphones
- Directional microphones
- Wireless microphones
according to their polar patterns are ordered.
That would look really informative, the most frequent microphone directly to be able to compare side by side, with indication of all pros-and minus points and just as objectively as possible. All tested under the same guidelines and specifications and with the same instruments, and everything in the same laboratory.
... and if there is something really there, please post the link here, thanks!

Hello,
A comparative test of all the microphones, I can not offer you.
I am using as a basis for my search for video / audio hardware and software are often the best of the Active Digital Video Magazine. If you have the latest issue can not buy you want the list for free at the following link to download.
http://www.videoaktiv.de/Bestenliste.html
It will give you USDI heading microphones, divided into Stereomiks, monomers, Funkmiks, Aufsteckmiks and USBmiks. See also List price, test result (score and grade) and in which the journal Miks were tested. Moreover, given what Miks just with phantom power to operate.
I am looking for me from the corresponding heading out the things which fit my budget and look at me the tests available on the Internet (Google, Slashcam and other video - and audio sides) or a magazine to test.
Maybe this helps you in your search so next.

@ Musashi:
This link is really very interesting and I will in the future in the search for the appropriate equipment with safety often anything goes!
The Choice of microphones (synonymous ... but the other "tools") is very broad and the evaluation score and Case (notes) provides a quick overview. Only when the classification of the category "Aufsteckmikrofone" seems a bit to go querbeet (apples with pears? ..., O):
Since there are, for example, "Beyerdynamic MCE 72" (stereo cardioid microphone, atmosphere), "Rode NTG 2" (mono, super-cardioid directional microphone), t.bone EM-9900 (Mono, Standard Micro), SonyECM MSD-1 or Rode VideoMic (both real only with hot shoe on the Cam to put) in a group together. And these microphones can be in my opinion really does not directly juxtapose just because they are synonymous camcorder to a "put" may be.
That reminds me to be synonymous as subjectively "Höreindrücke" could be (in this case my own).
The Beyerdynamic MCE 72 "is with very good and I am personally very satisfied synonymous. The SonyECM MSD-1, I used with my old Sony camcorder and was (am) so very happy, but in the test with satisfactory dismissed. As is my subjective impression is different.
@ Meggen
The Thomann links I already know and are synonymous quite interesting, but as a direct comparison somewhat cumbersome and not always synonymous truly objectively. The t.bone SC450, for example (which I have synonymous), in another test not so well off "as described in Thomann of the linked page. They want their "stuff", after sale ...
I'm still satisfied with the "thing"! Had I but a direct Hörvergleich to a really good large-diaphragm mic, my satisfaction would probably no longer so "graciously" fail.
Each case would probably MP3 audio samples, frequency analysis, noise behavior, etc. side by side (just like the Slashcam Camcorders-Comparison/Test) an optimal solution, which is probably in the form (not yet), except on that of "Bernd E." American Page mentioned that perhaps here is linked to.

For me it is exactly the opposite. The video asset list, I know for years. Some tests I have read kopfschüttelnd.
Thomann When I have been quite synonymous with critical test results read. Thomann sells almost the entire range. If you do not want T-Bone you buy just a AKG, Thomann sells both. At the SC1100 is a link to a current test report from KEYS with almost all current large-diaphragm microphone to 300 ¬. This test shows a lot more expertise than the usual video asset tests.
The SC450 has an excellent price / performance ratio.

That one video asset list is not the ultimate buying decision should take is, I think, clear. But a quick, broad overview of "usable" to "excellent" equipment to have, I find this "test charts" is very helpful. Of course, you will try again before the purchase in more detail about the election coming closer to inform devices. Concerning Thomann products, I almost never been synonymous been disappointed and I'm there for 20 years as a customer Thomann far s.Internethandel thought or even products under its own brand name. Whether Stairville, Millennium, etc. t.bone is: everything in the price / performance ratio is really good. As mentioned above, I am with the SC450 highly satisfied. For the price a top part, no doubt! (The link to the SC1100, I will more closely at them, lead.) Similarly, the t.bone MB85 beta (a Shure SM 58 beta-replica) is 39 Euro for a great vocal microphone with a lot more pressure than, for example, nearly three times as expensive classics Shure SM 58th However, I would not t.bone "s.die wall knocking or throwing down umpteen times, representing a Shure can wear almost nothing, except maybe a bent basket. The stability and longevity (as the material quality) is synonymous, I think a great point on which these "cheap microphones" is saved. As for the mixer, it is a bit surprising that the active video in almost all "very good" brand ... However, often times I was oltenen Behringer mixers in defense. I can not for the "newer generation" of Behringer speak, because my MX2004A Behringer Eurorack (16 channels) have nearly ten years old has (bought in 1999 for DM 730, also at Thomann), but this mixer is doing his duty to today (after several hundred gigs) without any music, and what the sound is concerned, it is at least as a live mixer, in the price category erste Sahne! With my slightly more than one year for 679 euro bought Mackie 1642 VLZ3 (16 channels), I am very satisfied synonymous, and it is of course a direct comparison better than the Behringer, but honestly I had of a "Mackie" is still more are expected. The Mackie is synonymous halt but a damn good mixer and studio in the future will be synonymous with me more use for video projects can be found.
To reiterate the issue microphones for video to come:
Since I am on the lookout for good to very good directional microphone (mono) bin, volatile at the moment I am somewhere between Rode NTG-1 (or -2), Beyerdynamic MCE 86 and Sennheiser K6/ME66, which of course ultimately synonymous a genuine issue of price. (Adjust the "AKG C1000S MKIII" really synonymous in this series?)
Since I moved to the t.bones somewhat skeptical, synonymous if they are always highly praised and advertised to be.
@ Bernd E.
I have looked at the times of your linked durchgeschaut Page (to be precise study's probably a little longer, English ..., o), but at first glance seem to be largely Mikros, which for my purse (at least for the moment ...) but then something "serious", although the finest microphones. Nevertheless, thanks for the link! (Be my audition to Ohre lead times!)

The question is, what a guide on a micro camcorder ultimately synonymous with the best quality can deliver. A T-Bone Micro close to the sound source will ultimately be much better sound than a Rode, Sennheiser or Beyerdynamic Micro on the camcorder a few meters away of the sound source.

The MCE 86 S is currently my bread and butter directional micro.

The microphones of you mentioned are certainly good and certainly better than the synonymous T-Bone EM9600 and EM9900.
The question is, what a guide on a micro camcorder ultimately synonymous with the best quality can deliver. A T-Bone Micro close to the sound source will ultimately be much better sound than a Rode, Sennheiser or Beyerdynamic Micro on the camcorder a few meters away of the sound source. No matter what dir it's Micro will be, I do not intend to it directly on my camcorder to plug. It is already as close as possible ran s.die sound source, either with a Tonangel or, if no Tonangler available on a second tripod. The Tripod method with my old Trikon-directional microphones (seems somehow the look and the technical data build on the same factory as the Audio Technica ATR55 to come ...) always brought good results, but these mics are now synonymous already well 15 years old. I have the last few years is no longer synonymous Camera s.der directly connected, but via an extra mixer in an MD-recorder running. The MCE 72 for Atmo the time I never directly on the Cam, when I would drive the HV30 because of noise synonymous fatal. whirrs ... you know, like a mosquito swarm. However, the Micro has a 2.5-m cable directly connected with the camcorder.
Even if the T.bones good results and are significantly cheaper, I tend to at the moment but Rode or Beyerdynamic. However, this Sennheiser set for 379 euros damned tempting. But for the price to get just now again two Rode NTG-2, and on short or long, I would like another two directional microphones growth.

Beyer Dynamics has a few years ago and operated nursing model the MCE 86 S II was released. I had to test it there. The increased sensitivity does not, however, with a better signal / noise ratio associated. Will hot, recorded sound sources are louder, the noise of the microphone but synonymous.

I have now quiet times in the audio samples of "dvestore.com" listened, and am honest, after everything I have about the Rode NTG-2 had read quite disappointed of this Microphone.

In direct comparison, there is the Sennheiser ME 66 clear winner. However, synonymous with the Micro Headphones is still a clear perceptible noise. Would of course have a direct comparison of the Beyerdynamic MCE 86 under the same conditions have been interesting. Synonymous'm not quite sure whether the noise that is there for all tested Mikros inaudible, really, to the extent of the microphone itself, or whether the sound quality on the compression of files for the Internet has suffered. Listening to the music samples on the Comparison of "kenstone.net" (see above), it is the sound quality is much better (if the synonymous recording conditions there was a little unprofessional seem to be) and I think this is not just that there sometimes much more expensive microphones have been tested.
Conclusion: If the files were in order, separates the Rode NTG-2 for me actually already made.

Hello,
I have now finally the Sennheiser ME66 + K6P bought and can only say that the Microphone really met my expectations fully. I have it on multiple consoles and even tested with my presumed worst "part", the Behringer UBB1002, flawless results. I think especially with microphones will never regret it, if you slightly more money invested. However, I was of the original packaging of Sennheiser in which the ME 66 "it was" fairly angesäuert! No deposit or other foam padding, just in the MicroStation blank cardboard! Since I use the microphone directly on site at the dealer bought, I have demanded, whether a shipping or return was a joke. But according to the seller when there's already Sennheiser ME66 long time and no returns Sennheiser pack its products in general not very good. Lack of time compared to another piece of the large warehouse to wait for 299 EUR and I's finally taken it. And yes it works flawlessly as described. If Sennheiser really lousy pack (which I questioning), since there would be considerable need for rework. At the prices we should expect synonymous if the quality of the product justifies the prices.
