>From seeing how you do your videos I would think that a livelier mic would be better for you. A good lav will cost some bucks and unfortunately the good ones require a kind of mic jack that your camera doesn't have. But you might be able to find a decent one with a mini jack that doesn't cost that much. But I'm more familiar with the expensive ones so I can't make any specific suggestions. Also a handheld mic on a stand in front of you (just out of the shot) might be another good solution. Electro Voice makes a good hand held ENG mic for about $100 (sorry can't recall the model number). Also you tend to shoot in really "live" rooms (meaning they have a lot of echo). So shooting in a more dead space with carpeting and curtains would improve your sound a bit as it's recorded now.
