Am I right in thinking that a shotgun mike would help limit background n

Subject: Am I right in thinking that a shotgun mike would help limit background n=
oise? I wish to keep things as portable as possible at the moment so a para=
bola system is out of the question.

A Sennheiser MKE 400 is one I am considering. (Is this the replacement for =
the MKE 300?) Is the MKE 400 mike suitable for what I have in mind?

Many people seem to suggest the ME66/K6 combination but this would stretch =
my budget a little. My problem is I have no idea what compromises are being=
 made in my selection. When buying my DSLR camera I knew the compromises I =
was making and when working within those eg. lower ISO, it does all I ask.

If the MKE 400, like the voice recorder before it, is unsuitable I would we=
lcome any suggestions or reccomendations.

Many thanks.
