Products to purchase for my Camera.

[samsagaz]

Hi Guys, im from Argentina, i will start making some HD small productions using my new T3i camera.
I purchased the camera, a few SD´s and now need to purchase stuff to get good sound and lights. Want to know if someone can point me to the right direction.
After this TV Productions i want to start making some short Martial Arts related documentals.
Any idea of gear to purchase will be appreciate.
Regards

I'm not that familiar with the T3i but most DSLR cameras need audio accessories.

Beachtek offers a line of mixers/level converters that work with most DSLRs.

Next you need a good mic or two. Choice of mic varies by shooting situation.

Choice of lighting kits varies as well.

A couple of soft lights (key and fill) are a good start.

I'm finding most screens on consumer cameras are way to small to see what's happening. This is why I recommend a larger camera monitor (or laptop)
