Glen look into the matchsticks from microphone madness. That's what I use and they're awesome.

Hi,

Check this one out
Miniature Microphone Specialists Stereo - Mono - Cardioid - Omnidrectional Giant Squid Audio Lab

I used them with irivers. They sound great for the price. (battery not needed)

Audio-Technica ATR-3350 Lavalier is what I'm using to mic my grooms with an H1 works good.
Cord is a little long, but that's all.

Thanks all! Im in the uk so hopefully will be able to get them shipped over to me from states. Seems like a bargain too...

I personally use a Rode Lavalier, it comes with a furry. It is a tad more than you're looking to spend, but it comes as a nice kit and it works really well with my H1. I personally will not use a really cheap microphone, I dislike the sound of them.

Hi Glen,

I'm a Giant Squid Audio user. Here's my little video test about it.

You may wish to skip on for the test. I do ramble on a bit!
