Sennheiser shotgun mic question

Forums

Hi, I am currently in the market to buy a shotgun mic for on site dialogue and sound effcts in post ( both for filmmaking). I have been recommended a Sennheiser me66 which varies in price from $400-700. Would you guys suggest another microphone instead of the me66?. Are there any key things I should look for? My budget for mics is only $500ish or less as of now.

Sennheiser U5 vs U4 vs MKII

Hi everyone, I was wondering if anybody had any experience or insight into the differences between the sound and/or design of the Sennhesier U5, U4, and MKII mics. There are no details as on the Sennheiser website and I was wondering if anybody had made an attempt to quantify the sonic differences between these mics.
