Hi, Masterblaster,
I've been doing some sleuthing online and around MusicBanter while researching microphones, and have learned that the condenser microphones MXL 990 (for vocals) and MXL 991 (intended for acoustic guitar and drum overhead) are highly recommended and fairly inexpensive (the package with the two microphones costs $80 at Musician's Friend). People gave them very good reviews, so I am wondering if there may be some microphone in the MXL family that would suit your filming/action uses? For example, people wrote that these microphones work well as overall room microphones, which I imagine may be what you'd need. You can learn more about the package by googling MXL 990/MXL 991 Recording Microphone Package.
