So i finally pulled the trigger on a Sony ZV-E10 for my trip to Kyoto and Osaka next month but the onboard mic is honestly driving me a bit crazy even with that little deadcat thing on top. It catches way too much background noise when im walking through busy streets and i really need something that focuses on my voice more. I've been doing a ton of research and i'm stuck between a few choices because i want to keep the setup as light as possible since i'll be walking miles every day and dont want a huge rig.

My budget is pretty firm at around $200 because i already spent way too much on lenses and plane tickets. I need something that can handle wind but also doesnt make me look like a professional news crew while im just trying to eat street food and talk to the camera. I'm mostly doing walk-and-talk style stuff so rejection of side noise is a big deal for me.

Im currently torn between these three options:

• Sony ECM-B10: This is my top pick right now mostly because it uses the multi-interface shoe. No cables sounds like a dream for packing and unpacking quickly. Its right at the limit of my budget though and i've heard some people say the digital processing can sound a bit artificial.
• Rode VideoMic GO II: Its half the price of the Sony and everyone says the audio quality is stellar but im worried about the cable getting in the way of the flip out screen or just being a nuisance in my bag. Plus i'd have to remember to check if its plugged in right every single time.
• Sony ECM-G1: Its super tiny which i love but i wonder if the quality is actually that much better than the built-in one to justify buying it? It seems almost too small to have good wind protection.

The B10 seems the smartest for a Sony body but is the extra $100 worth it just to lose the wire? I leave in three weeks so i need to make a move soon so i can test it out before the flight. Which one would you guys pick for a solo traveler who hates carrying extra gear?
