Groan... Here we go again...
Okay, I'm not a fan of Zoom gear. I recommend Tascam (DR-05, DR-07mkII, DR-40) or Roland (R-05) in that price range. The Rode VMP is an acceptable consumer grade mic. The big issue is that you'll need a whole bunch of accessories like headphones (Sony MDR-7506 - $100), a boom-pole, wind protection, cabling.
A few warnings... The boom-pole with most Rode kits is only 6' 9" (206cm) - rather short for real usage; I recommend a minimum of 10' (304cm) to 12' (365cm). Being Hi-Z (high impedance) makes consumer audio gear susceptible to RF (Radio Frequency) and EM (Electro-Magnetic) interference.
The biggest obstacle to solid production sound is the person "swinging" the boom; the closer in and more accurately the mic is aimed the better your production sound will be. You also need to control the noise in the environment as best as you can.
As always, I recommend (if possible) finding someone who knows something about production sound. It will be a much better investment than buying a whole bunch of gear you'll use only two or three times a year because your sound will be much better than anything you could get with you or whichever friend or PA you have swinging the boom.
