550d and zoom h4n

hi guys im currently using the 550d with the zoom h4n's on board stereo mic. does anyone else here use this kind of setup? if so how do you carry it? shoulder rig? or mounted on top the cam?
 
Hi Liam - I use a $9 Adorama C bracket and a $27 Sescom cable to mount external recorders on my cameras. I call it the "Poor Man's Rig". Here's a pic w the bracket and an H1 on the old 550D/T2i:

Here are the H1 and a rechargeable 70 LED lamp on the GH2 with the same bracket:

And here it is on a camcorder:

If you hold the camera body and not the bracket, you can avoid handling noise.

Cheers,

Bill
