Mic Options? New Vlogger

[Cyclevice]

Afternoon all.
I got myself a Drift Stealth and quickly noticed there is no mic :-(

Any cheap options for mics i can use?

Ive no worries matching up audio to picture etc but any tips on easy making would be brilliant

Thanks

I use the drift , it's good but the foam cover is flimsy.

You can modify the stealth to take a external mic.

Yeah ive seen the Youtube video but im not that confident in doing it myself, pretty tempted to just get the Ghost or look for another small camera that takes a mic for vlogging (must have about 3 hours recording)
Ive ruled out go pro as they are just too big

If it’s convenient I’d suggest getting the Ghost S. I have one and it’s great, especially with the external mic. I’ve used it under my full face helmet and have been happy with the sound quality.

If you want to use an external mic I’d suggest a Zoom 4Hn handy recorder.

Just to add if you get a ghost make sure you use a decent SD card. I have just been though SD card hell with mine in the last week.

But that said I've been though camera hell in the last 2-3 weeks.

Was here a particular SD card that gave you problems? I’ve used a few and haven’t had any trouble.
