ok the camcorder handle has a built in light but to be honest not that bright. So having a CN-160 LED light I placed that on the handle top front. so that was one issue solved and created another.
Now nowhere to put a microphone if not using the holder.Having got already a Boya BY-SM80 stereo mic and an sennheiser MKE-400 directional I didn’t really want to spend out again on another one
Going through my “bits” box I had an extending straight hand grip but one end had a screw stud and the other the female equivalent. So out to the workshop to find a bolt and then cut and grind down to size so the mic faced forward.
Now I can fit a better light and a mic at the same time.
