Hi I need your help I'm new in outdore sounds recording. It's an expensive hobby but want to go with it. Looking for good microphones for ambient sounds recording (outdoors) for nature sounds & birds sounds. Ocassionaly will record urban sounds too. I have some budget for all my equipment, but want to get some 1-2 microphones for start. Also I love to have gear for years. As for recorder I will go with SOUND DEVICES MixPre-6 II As for microphones I found some nice shotguns from shennheiser's: good price: Sennheiser ME66 (used) Sennheiser ME67 (used) expensive but affordable: Sennheiser MKH 416 Sennheiser MKH 8070 Sennheiser MKH 8060 Sennheiser MKH 70 (can get used) But what microphone to choose? What to get for recording streams or forest at all? Other proposals regarding microphones and addicional equipment welcome
