LOL!! Matt, you crack me up. Thanks for the link. And no, I'm not as concerned about what they see in the end as what they hear. I've been watching a lot of docs of late, and you see just about everything/every approach used at one time or another. I'd prefer to not have the mic in the shot, but while my background is picture, I agree with those who say bad audio really jumps out at you, so I'm trying to really focus on having the best tools (within my pathetic budget) that I can, "tribbles" in their faces or not.

Live long and prosper. :-)
