I still lack confidence using the Sennheiser mic. I would love some best practices tips on using it both on the fly and in more deliberate circumstances.

Hi Grant,
As far as mics. That Sennheiser on camera mic is more entry level for picking up sound. I had that when I first started shooting video with HDSLR's, used it twice and then moved on to better equipment.
This Rode Video Mic Pro is really good at picking up sound, you just have to monitor your audio levels in your camera.
