Audio test: Yeti vs iPhone vs iMac vs Image S4i vs Powershot SD750

I test out the different mics that I have available. You can see the difference between a Semi-Pro mic, the iphone, the 27" iMac's built in mic, a headphone mic, and a camera mic.

PLEASE REPLY! How did you record audio with the blue microphone, and video from another source at the same time? Is there a way to set this up with my camcorder?

@FSMFilms

-I told my laptop to use the mic as input

-Record audio with laptop and video with Camera and then use video editing to mute the camera audio and merge Yeti with Camera video.

i never understand why people would wear black glasses indoors ... it's either they're blind or idiot ... which one r u ??? >.<

[JawnMercernary]

@pilus87 The idiot! The idiot! I also don't understand people that jump to conclusions. I may be wearing sunglasses because of the following reasons: -had pink eye that day -eyes were red because I was doing drugs -eyes were red because I was sleep deprived -missing one eye -lost or broke my glass eye -got into a fight and had a black eye -had eye surgery and needed to stay away from light -wanted to look cool -wanted to be anonymous -I'm an idiot -I'm blind See, many reasons :)

always been impressed with my iPhone mic. I've actually recorded auditions on it. Just invested in a Blue Yeti and i'll never look back.

Thanks for the video, so few reviews actually include samples. While the blue sounds the best it seems to favor the bass. the iPhone quality was surprisingly good.
