I'm a newbie and getting into Field Recording slowly ...and carefully.
I bought a Sony PCM M10 as my first baby-step and would like to now add a shotgun mic ($ range $100 - $300) so I'll be able to avoid some of the greater world's ambiance.
The Sony M10 supplies something called "Plug In Power" but I'm not interested in buying a "Plug In Power Mic".
Does anyone have a list of "self-powered" mics? ...mics that do not require phantom power. For the time being I will need to buy adapters to convert XLR or 1/4" phone plugs to 3.5 mm to use mics with the Sony M10
If anyone just wants to send me the non-phantom-power-requiring mics they're aware of I will compile the list I'm seeking and then post it as a pdf to help people coming along later on.
Thanks! Jim
