    Thanks for all of your help! Heather Torres directed me to this video in order to answer my question about gear, specifically: Canon M50 (purchased through ThinkMedia link!) and two podcast mics.Hubby and I want to both be in the video/podcast and I will use my M50 to record. My problem is how to connect the two mics to the camera so that I don't have to sync the video and audio in editing. Are you saying that the XLR Cable and Comica Link Flex for two channels will do what I need to do? Thanks again! I'm looking forward to hearing back from you - I'm sure others are wondering the same!
