    As the title states, I need some advice for final touches to my video setup.

    I'm running a G20 and a Rode Videomic but I'm thinking I want another, backup audio option. I don't want to spend a complete fortune but want something of quality that I'm going to be happy with for a long time. Suggestions?

    Also, I'm wanting a light that I can run for recovery videos if needed or early morning filming before heading into the woods. There's a lot of options out there, I didn't know if you guys have any preferences

    Thanks as always!

    I'm also interested in this. I'm in the market for a mic but have no clue which to get.

    Might not be the best options, but here's the cheap way I went.

    Light: Bescor LED-70 dimmable led for under $40.

    Mic: Rode SmartLav & my iPhone. $60

    So far they are both working for me quite well.

    Otherwise, look at this for some cheap audio ideas.

    I have the Bescor 70 as well. Very happy with it so far, just haven't used it much.
