Hey everyone! If you're a DSLR shooter I want to hear about your audio set up. Do you use a field recorder/lav combo or DSLR mounted shotgun microphone?

I use a wireless sennheiser mic and a lapel plus Rode NT2 boom set up with XLR to mini jack.
i use a boom and wireless lav to record to an app on my iPhone that has a built in mixer which I can use to clean up the sound. Easy for a one man operation because I can operate my sound equipment and camera myself

Expand commentIt really depends on what you're shooting. If you're doing run-n-gun, or really anything other than a film I would much rather use in-camera audio. It would be a waste of money to hire a sound guy for many projects. The Juicedlink makes a low-noise pre-amp which has a cleaner signal to noise than a Zoom H4n. Plus, you can just start editing right away and won't have to worry about syncing audio. Also, if you have many small clips, sometimes Plural Eyes doesn't respond correctly, even in the new version. At least that's been my experience with both Version 2 & 3. Check out the comparisons of many options out there: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KKVeBqhXMvM
I use my 550D with magic lantern and a rode video mic either on-camera or on a boom.
