Try the Evolution series of Sennheiser. They're not cheap, but very
reliable and easy to use.
Good luck!

What percentage of the time do you find yourselves using Radio
instead of regular mics, what regular mics do you use? You have XLR
inputs on your camera?

you know if its Video 101.
for personal stuff, i never use any external mics.
i just get close...im more worried about getting the moment than the
bets audio quality.
when we want better quality (work etc)...we obviously use external mics.
The wireless mic is the best for a one person interview...especially
if they are taking us on a tour.
never matters if they turn their heads and dont face the camera.
audio is crystal.
The shotgun is great when there are multiple people involved...or we
cant get a wireless mic on the person.
yes, we have a camera that takes XLR, but didnt for a long time.
Ultimately, we just try to find the simplest setup that will give us
good quality, then we focus on what the hell we're recording to make
sure its interesting to us.
Another - possibly more interesting / innovative approach to great
documentary interview sound might be to record double system.
Video 'B-roll' - interesting shots of the subject in situ + separate audio
interview with small mp3 / wav recorder.
Great audio cause you can always easily keep the microphone close.
More interesting video than talking heads would ever-ever-ever give ya.
:)
Costs more in time to edit, less initial dollar and learning curve
investment. Radio and boom mics aren't rocket science, but they hold a lot
of secrets to their success, too.

YES!! This is what I use (double system) when I record panels at science
fiction conventions. Yes, I have used wireless in the past ... but my
Edirol R-09 with a pair of Crown Sound Grabber 2 mics on the table works
great and is hardly noticable to both the audience and the panel members
(and the camera)
there is also tghis veru funny trick : yoi use a kind of min mike with
a wire that you stick to your finger with some tape and the you just
point at the pêrson who's speaking, and it works !!!
very cheap indeed !

Various wireless manufacturers make a "brick" which is a transmitter
that plugs on to a mic via the XLR connector and turns most any mic
into a wireless mic. Some even provide the Phantom power required by
many condenser microphones.
