Mic for recording video question
I have a couple of condenser mics, an Audio-Technica AT875R, a Sennheiser e945 and Shure sm58. I've also got an Art ProMix 3 channel mixer. It doesn't have any tone controls, but does have phantom power and low pass filter. I'll be recording my playing accoustic guitar, fingerpicking mainly. I could do some singing at some point, but I'm primarily interested in getting the best tone from my guitars. The video camera has XLR imputs, which the mixer has a balanced output.
I'm first interested in seeing if there is an upgrade on the mics, if there is maybe a large diaphram mic I could get that would work well with recording the guitar. I'm not looking to break the bank, just hoping for a better option than what I have for this purpose in mics, maybe in the $300 range? There is a mic sale at Sweetwater, so I was thinking maybe there was a good deal going on right now that I could take advantage of?
