    The Sennheiser MKE400 would probably do the job with a camcorder.

    Also consider the Sennheiser ME66 plus wind sock if you have a bolt on XLR microphone adaptor. I am very impressed with this microphone which is pretty difficult to tell apart from the much more expensive classic film/eng gun mic the MKH416.

    I would advise spending a bit more rather than a bit less if you can.

    eBay is worth a look.
