Universal Shotgun Mic for Camera – Camera Microphone for DSLR, iPhone and Android Smartphones
(Amazon) For better quality audio while taping your auditions.
This Lavalier mic is magical. If you need noise cancelation this is a really cost effective mic to get. It’s what I use. IMPORTANT: Make sure you get the right adapter USB-C or Lighting Bolt. Want to work with your air-condition on and your loud neighbors talking this solves the problem. Highly recommended.
This is the Holy Grail of adapters for iPhones. It has an HDMI, Microphone input, and a lightening charger port (on the side were the cord comes out). This small little power house let’s you watch playback from your TV, mic yourself and charge your phone all at the same time.
This is the stand that I use. What I like about it is that it’s hydraulic. Lowering and raising it up is very easy. Down side the table top does not fold down. Read instruction carefully in putting it together.
I actually own this camera and use it to teach all of my classes. There is an app to download so that you have more controls over the camera. I own a Mac and it works well with it.
This camera is a little less expensive than the one I own. But I have heard that this works great.
