Advice on microphone suitable for 2016 MacBook Pro

[urbanski]

Have acquired a 2016 MacBook Pro 15" but need to use an external microphone for vlogging. Most external mics have a 3.5mm audio jack, but of course there's no 3.5mm audio in on the new Pro.

Question is...does anybody know where I can source a USB C - 3.5mm audio jack adpater for the external mic, or if someone knows of a decent, good value USB c microphone, then please shout out!

Thx in advance!

Tons of great USB mics out there. I imagine you just need a USB C -> B cable (ie. a printer type connector), such as http://www.belkin.com/us/p/P-F2CU035/

Any USB mic from BLUE will probably meet your needs, or alternatively the samson meteor is pretty good also.
