I recently picked up the Fuji Mic-ST1 for my XE2s. I don't shoot a lot of video, however I thought it might be nice to improve the sound quality on any video I shot.
With the mic attached, I can not tell any difference in the sound quality over shooting with the built-in mics. The same goes for how far away I can pick something up. I have tried adjusting several settings in the camera: selecting "mic" in the movie menu, adjusting the mic sensitivity, and adjusting the playback volume. I have also downloaded the video onto my computer but there doesn't seem to be much of a difference.
Am I missing something about a mic? Some setting or circumstance that will make a difference? Expecting too much? I know it is not the best mic going, but I thought I would at least hear an improvement over the camera built-ins. Any input is appreciated.
