Hello everyone,
I am a new marching band director and I need some help selecting a mic to record my band. First off, this will only be used to make quick field recordings during competitions so I can show them what is working well and not. I am not looking for CD quality sound, but a decent sound, and a mic that will work with my Canon Vixia HF 800. I was thinking either The Rode Video Mic or the Zoom F1-SP. I apologize for not adding links, but since this is my first post, I am not allowed. I am looking to keep it under $250.
Thank you for all your help and comments.
