Which microphone should I get?

[Upatree502]

I'm looking for a microphone for recording videos, possibly at a distance of several feet, and I was looking at these three mics:

-CAD U1 USB Dynamic Recording Microphone
-CAD U37 USB Studio Condenser Recording Microphone
-Samson Go Mic Compact USB Microphone

Which one of these three would you say is the best?

Be very careful with a condenser mic using 3.5mm jack, they need amplification to work properly. Plug a condenser mic straight into a Mic/Line In input on your PC and it will more than likely not work. I learnt the hard way.

Dynamic mic's will work fine, and USB mic's are extremely simple to use.

That Samson ought to do the job nicely as it's USB powered.


Though if you are recording a lot of videos and want high quality it may be worth investing quite a bit more money, such as below:
