most will go for RODE

if u don mind the big size u can only consider that one

go youtube search the mic and then listen to determine if is clear and good

Which one will you recommend, bro?
I researched.. And now confuse between the pro and non- pro Rode Videomic..

The primary difference between the Rode VideoMic Pro and the VideoMic is size.

The other is that VideoMic Pro has a +20dB level option which the older VideoMic doesn't.

This video covers the differences between the 2 microphones quite well.

if u have a budget , u don have much choice imo
i will go for the VMpro which is $209 cheapest at TKfoto at Funan lvl2

but i myself also like the Sennheiser MKE 400 Compact Video Camera Shotgun Microphone
which cost $299 locally

but both (mke vs vmpro) have pro and cons on the design, AAA vs 9v battery

from the video, i think the pro sounds better

I think i will go and rent it.. I found that D7000 has no setting for the video.. so mostly, just plug in and rec, am i right?

D7000 has three sensitivity levels to choose from (Low, Medium and High), along with Auto gain, and Off settings.

If unsure, check yr manual.
