Answer» I'm looking for a wireless microphone that i can plug in my computer/ camcorder. Any suggestions would be appreciated since i'm having a hard time finding anything lower than 200$ THANK you!Would bluetooth work for you? You can buy a bluetooth USB adapter to connect to your computer and use a bluetooth headset then. And, the cost could easily be less than $50. Does that sound like an OPTION to you? Edit: My comments above apply to the computer. I don't know about the camcorder. For professional use, that is the right price.Quote from: Geek-9pm on August 03, 2011, 05:20:13 PM For professional use, that is the right price. Which price, mine or his? I said computer/ camcorder because i thought it would be the same but i am actually looking for a camcorder one. ThanksQuote from: soybean on August 04, 2011, 07:16:42 AM Which price, mine or his? If the OP is a professional he would visit sites that canter such and the prices is about $200 for a microphone that is reliable, elegant and sounds good. However, the OP did not say way he wanted a lower price. The best answer I can give is this: If you can not afford wireless, you don't NEED it. With the exception of Bluetooth headsets, other low cost wireless microphones are toys.Don't many camcorders have a built-in mic? Quote from: soybean on August 04, 2011, 11:30:24 AM Don't many camcorders have a built-in mic? They do but for this one, i would have to have the camcorder in the face of the person being interviewed to actually hear loud and clear.

With the exception of Bluetooth headsets, other low cost wireless microphones are toys. I'm no professional when it comes to Camcorders and stuff. I tried to look around for ~200$ wireless microphones but unlike computers parts, i am unsure what's a good brand, quality, etc. This is why i am trying to ask a professional's opinion and recommendations.As I said, I'm not familiar with mics for camcorders so I can't really give recommendations. Nevertheless, I just found this one on Amazon.com and thought it MIGHT worth a look by you: http://www.amazon.com/Sony-WCS999-Camcorder-Microphone-DCR-DVD101/dp/B00004UFRO Reading through reviews there might be helpful. Edit: If that one does not look good to you, I believe you can find many others on Amazon.com, a good place to shop online. soybean, that was a good catch. The prices have really come done. Forget what I said. some of the new stuff for consumer use seems to as good or maybe better that the professional stuff. I just realized that there is a new problem with older pro wireless equipment. It was FM analog, not digital. On low band VHF. If the consumer device is a modern wireless device, the quality may be even better. The FCC recently made some changes the ruined the older professional wireless stuff. My mind is not as sharp as it used to be, I didn't recall that bit of information until just now. The OP wants to buy recent new DESIGN wireless. The older analog stuff may suffer interference. Thanks to you both. I decided to go with the one above.
