For recording HD video.

 

i suppose the Holophone PortaMic 5.1 might be a bit out of the price range.

After listening the to samples, the The Rode Stereo VideoMic seems like the best bang for the buck.

I find myself using the video feature much more often than I thought and a nice mic would be a useful addition to my arsenal.
