How to choose the right mic for Sony ZV-E10

  • Mostly talking to camera (static): pick an on-camera shotgun mic for quick, consistent results.
  • Walking, travel, or movement: wireless (GO II / DJI Mic) is usually the best choice.
  • Windy or noisy locations: prioritise directionality + proper wind protection.
  • Fast setup matters: leave a compact mic mounted so the camera is always “ready”.
