Best shotgun mic for the $?

Looking to invest in a shotgun mic for my HF G20. Trying to keep it under $150 (in college so on a budget :/) What are some of your favorites?

 

This is probably the most common shotgun mic used when you don't have XLR inputs on your camera.

Rode VideoMic with Rycote Lyre Suspension System VIDEOMIC-R B&H

 

Yep ... that one. I use it on my DSLR rig. Great mic for the money.

 

This one definitely!

 

Uh huh... I run it on my G20, great mic
for a few extra bucks you can order it with the dead cat.

 

I have two of the Rode VideoMic, it's fantastic. I'm also a big fan of the NTG2, but its much larger and if you don't have XLR it can be a PITA hooking it up to a 3.5mm. I'd recommend the Rode VideoMic, get it, you won't regret it!
