A mixer is good to have. I also recommend getting an XLR adapter like the ones sold by Beachtek or Studio 1 Productions. A good mic is a necessity as well as a good boom pole and shock mount. Even if you're indoors you will probably need some sort of windscreen.

If you're on your own (i.e. no boom operator), you should still check into getting a good shock mount. I think Lightwave (and other companies) makes one for mounting shotgun mics to a camera.
