I use an EDDYCAM Strap. They are made of Elk leather and are so soft and comfortable. The only down side is that they are a little pricey. https://en.eddycam.com

Have you tried enhancing the camera audio with audio editing (volume, EQ, echo, etc.)? When I edit my videos I also spend some time with the audio. The problem with a camera mic or even a separate recorder like the zoom is you have to watch for extraneous noises (autofocus hunting, auto aperture changes, brushing with your sleeve, etc.). I find the zoom has good audio quality and I sync it with the camera audio in the video editor.


I appreciate your input Bob. I'm just starting out in the video world and am not sure how far I'll take it. I was merely trying to get away from using the built in mic to upgrade the sound and eliminate the wind noise. I hear that Santorini is quite breezy. Thanks again for your help.

I don't exactly know your application or intent. You wrote that you've not used your R5 for videography. My assumption is therefore that videography is also new for you.

I recorded video for years before I paid attention to audio. My goals were distant wildlife and the only audio needed was background music added in post. That changed when I moved to a retirement community and people showed up in front of my camera.

So depending on where you go with video, I think you "need" one of the four smaller camera mounted Rode mics. (https://rode.com/en/about/news-info/audio-for-film-101-which-video-microphone-is-best-for-you-rode-videomic-comparison) My current choice would be the versatile "VideoMic GO II" over the more expensive "VideoMic NTG". What I have is the lowest cost VideoMicro that does work well.

I also think you will find you will "need" a wireless mic like the Wireless Go II or DJI equivalent. Nobody that records people will do without something that clips to their shirt, lapel or collar.

Do you "need" an independent recorder like the Zoom H1n? That will depend entirely where you go with your video recording. In my case, I have a small, compact audio bag. In it are the three pieces of gear I'm talking about. There is also a few adapters, brackets and lav mics. Depending on what I'm doing, any part of that kit might be needed.

Thank you for your feedback. I think I'll pick up a GO II and give it a try. It sounds like the logical choice for me just starting out in video. Again, I appreciate your input and taking the time to help me with my selection.

Thank you both for your advice. Do you see much benefit in getting the NTH over the GO II or do you think it is a waste of money for my application?

The answer, as in everything, depends on what your expectations are for the soundtrack.

Are you narrating as you film?

Are you just hoping to record some ambient sounds?

Are you hoping to record conversations more than three feet away, or more than two feet away in noisy locations?

What is your budget for audio?

Are you going to edit the video in a non-linear editing suite?

There are tons of options ranging from cheap, wired lapel mics to wireless systems costing hundreds or thousands.

Thank you for the quick reply to my question. I am basically looking for better ambient sound. I did some recording with the built-in mic and obviously was not impressed. I will be editing the video with Davinci Resole. I really don't have a budget. I'm looking for the best money can buy but want to invest in a mic that will give me great sound for my application.
