|| SportsShooter.com: Member Message Board Sennheiser MKE 400 Joel Kowsky, Student/Intern, Photographer Columbia/Morris | MO/IL | United States | Posted: 12:59 PM on 06.07.10 ->> I'm looking at getting an external microphone for my 7D. I've been looking at the Sennheiser MKE 400 for some time now. I'm looking for some feedback from anyone who has used this microphone. Let me know what you like about it or if you downright hate it.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

It's size is perfect, since it's so small, and I travel a lot. It also works well when I plug it into my Zoom H2 and just record audio. It's just as good as the comparable Rode mic, which is way bigger but slightly cheaper.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

Recently we picked up an Azden ECZ-990, $55 at B&H. As far as I can tell, the Azden works just as well if not better than the Sennheiser. The Azden is a bit larger, but in my opinion is a lot more bang for the buck. I just recently bought a 7D, and as I work on my upgrades to fill out a kit for video, this will be the shotgun I will get.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

It works very well and is stealthy.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

There IS a difference between the MKE400 and the Rode, though. The Rode mic, though bigger is more shotgun directional then the Sennheiser which is a bit more omnidirectional.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

Would highly recommend that one.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh? (0) | Off Topic (0) | Inappropriate (0) |   Definitions Add your comments...
