Q. hello friends; i have a sony hdr-sr11 i am thinking in buying external mic to record loud live music but i am not sure what mic to buy i have been looking for RODE VideoMic DVC; SONY ECM-MSD1; SONY ECM-HST1; which would you recommend? thanks for your answers.
A. Any of the mics will work OK for normal audio levels. I am not familiar with that camera enough to know if you can adjust audio input levels (probably not). If so, you are all set. If not, you will be disappointed because the camera will try to adjust levels automatically and it is NOT designed for loud music. You will get badly distorted sound.
Video pros always have a way to adjust the audio levels - pro cameras have that feature built in. Consumer cameras do not.
It will be a bit of a pain, but the best way to do this is to connect the microphone to a camcorder "XLR audio interface". This device allows you to adjust the mic level down so that it does not distort the camera input. You will need to buy a mic that has an XLR output. The mics you are looking at I think connect directly to the camera - you don't want that. Here is one reasonably priced audio interface that is designed for what you want to do:

You can then connect any good pro XLR microphone to you camera.

What is a good camcorder for recording live music.?
Q. Christian Contemporary. I 'm on a budget but I need a camcorder with clear audio.
A. check out the Alesis Video Track. It has some good mics on it and takes pretty decent video. Not a bad price either
