So... What does the Dad that has everything and returned most of it, want? :bowrofl:

A classic! Good one :tup:

Good morning all. Did everyone one have a good weekend?

:icon18: blahahahaha!!! i always wanted to watch tv off my MBP, so i asked for a tv tuner module thingie. :icon17:

hey, i have 2 more mics coming to me... cheapo's. fake sony and a real sony stereo condensers in a different shape. both worked well on a kodak i8 so im assuming it will work well on my gopro... :ugh2: will find out later. :ugh2:

Good morning Sirs :tiphat:

hi there again, mr. gale! :hello: yah, my weekend was goood. lots of car stuff, lots of freelance work i got done. :tup:

how was yours? :D

TV tuner, the elgato? I've heard very good things about it but haven't used one myself.

I have yet to hear about issues using external mics on a Kodak Zi8.... I'm guessing the mics used with the GoPro will disappoint. But I'll stay hopeful. :tup: Have you looked at the Sennheiser 400 mke?

Hi Mr.kenchan :tiphat: sounds like you had a good weekend. I did the usual yard maintenance, house cleaning, then a fun day at the Grand reopening of the local Nissan dealer with my little guy. I found out he's afraid of clowns on stilts :rofl2:

Sunday was a out-and-about family day finished off with a quick spin in the Z. Good times :tup:

Oh, right, pawn it off like it I was the one making advances :shakes head:

yep, elgato eyeTV it's called. :tup:

the one thing i noticed about these mics is that if the input level is low after plugging it into the gopro, chances are the S/N will be terrible due to the gopro's internal high pitched noise unless you place your mic next to a loud sound source. inside the cabin of my z (not quiet but not super loud) both rode (at -10dB) and audiotechnica were too low.

with the cheepo mics that i choice, the sensitivity is on the higher side but not high quality so they are probably about -3dB lower vs a nice mic like the rode.

the rode would do well in quiet environments like say in my music room or inside a house, inside a quiet car if the mic was held by hand. when i spoke into the rode at 0dB, the gopro sounded acceptable.

also the isolators were not enough to suspend the mic housing from its holder over bumps even with my conti DW's. i can hear the mic housing bumping the holder. :ugh2:
