It's hard to find any useful specs on that mic with a Google search, even on Sonystyle. It looks like a directional mic that connects to your camcorder, which raises the question:

How is the sound on your camcorder? Stereo or mono? Full-range frequency response (20-20000K) or limited?

The interesting-looking thing about it is that it's directional and it claims to coordinate with the zoom on your camcorder so you can single out one person's sounds as you zoom in. Whether that will work with your particular camcorder is something you'd have to investigate.

If your camcorder is mono, has limited frequency response and isn't compatible with that mic's zoom feature, you're likely to be better off with the MD. If your camcorder is stereo and has full-spectrum recording, and you can somehow find out what that mic's specs are--perhaps by calling Sony?--then maybe it's your solution.
