Looking for a mic

[TheMentalCaseVlog]

i will hopefully be getting a camera tomorrow and just noticed i need to buy a microphone for the GoPro Hero 3. My question is does anyone know where i can get one at a store because i would rather not wait to buy one? I just moved to the Fort Worth, Texas area if it helps.

Does the Hero3 have an external input? I was with a friend 2 weeks ago that has one, and I did not see an input, unless it's via the mini-USB port. :?:

You'll have to order an adapter first. Maybe the store you're picking up your Hero 3 from will have them in stock as well.

well i know of the adapter and plan on getting it but not sure where i can get a mic at that will work well for motovlogging.

Lavalier, and gooseneck microphones do an excellent job. You can spend as much money as you want on a microphone, sound quality for motovlogging is about 1. positioning 2. windblocking 3. software based noise reduction techniques. Reason being, any microphone you'll pickup will most likely be condenser, which commonly have a flat, true to sound frequency. So you'll pretty much end up with the same sound coming from a £1-50+ microphone when vlogging.

You might want to look at a zoom h1 or similar digital voice recorder. While you do have to realign the audio timings, the separate audio will give you a bit more freedom and keep your case 100% waterproof. That's just another more expensive and often unnecessary option compared to a £1 lavalier microphone.

Caesar342, Don't forget you will also need the GoPro mic adapter to use a microphone on your new GoPro Hero3.

Oh, he's just another guy who used to be here who had a strikingly similiar profile (same city, same bike) and nearly identical talking tone and pace in his videos who also thought he may have some mental issues. I believe you and him are the same person. I may be wrong but...I don't think so.

My local Best Buy carries GoPro accessories. They have a few mics as well. There is always Amazon, especially with Prime membership. 3.99 to receive it tomorrow? OK!!
