I did some shopping over the weekend to pick up a shotgun mic for Run & Gun style video shoots so that I could have decent audio. I didn't want to spend $300 on one, so I decided to try out the Takstar SGC-598 for under $30.
This takstar SGC-598 is supposed to compete with the more popular Rode video microphones on qaulity. While I didn't have one handy to test it against, I did think it performed pretty well.
Here's some quick tests on it. Let me know what you think, here's a link to what I bought: https://amzn.to/2lUBPo6
