First example again, internal mic:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NgLeyPzUhnUOK, so here is a second example for comparison, a slightly different situation, but another outdoor concert, much closer to the stage this time, but using a Rode video mic instead of the T3i internal mic. In terms of the concert, the sound quality was decent enough at both, but I would say it was better at the first example using the internal mic but I was further away from the stage.
http://youtu.be/oLrZHQYuw98Either way, I am a total novice with video, and just experimenting, so what you are experiencing is straight out of the camera and uploaded to YouTube.
I'm glad I paid for the Rode video mic. Clearly there are more sophisticated ways to do audio and video.
In both cases I used the capabilities of Magic Lantern on the T3i to set and monitor audio levels....
Hope this helps.

Both are useable but as with my Shure, the Rode sounds a lot better. Thanks for your examples.

Yours also, nice to see some of your work.... :)
Brown Truck just came with my new Audio Technica AT8024 mic. Have not had chance of to try it yet. I like the fact that it is selectable between mono and stereo modes. Will let you know how I like it! They sell for $249 most places, but I got it new from EBay for $175.
You don't say what you are using it for but I like this one if you are recording specific people. They also make one for two mics.

I don't do much video, but would like to get an inexpensive, quality microphone to put on the hot shoe while recording video.
Any suggestions?
