why would you need to hear the sound of silence? scooters dont make noise unless your scoot is rattling music covers most of the noise if not all and for the scoot sound itself the internal mic is fine for me even on low end cam. and obviously thats not a vx2100 .3 death mk1. i know you have to mod that but modding a lenshood so it doesnt show in film? thats just because it wasnt put on right. if your going to buy a mic to film scootering and not interviews and such just upgrade to vx1 for way better sound and colors. and b weezy unless your getting into filming not just occasionaly filming friends, dont get one.
Hmm how about sounds of wheels hitting ramps, griding, feet catching whips. hands grabbing barspins, sounds of impact from drops ect... detailed shit that will add to the video. If you want your video to be boring without natural sound be my guest, don't rag on other people because they put some thought into their work.
The Opteka lenshoods show up in the shots sometimes, theres nothing you can do about it but mod it. Some kind of manufacturing error. Read about it.
VX1000 is old as fuck. I can get 1000x better colors on my DVX and theres nothing real special about the audio, it gets nice pops for skateboards and thats about it.
