VIDEO recording external sound.

VIDEO recording external sound, for better audio.


When picking an external digital recorder for audio there are quite a range of devices available for all budgets.

Due to the relatively low size of uncompressed audio files (certainly compared to uncompressed video) as well the high capacity and low cost of solid-state storage, most recorders either use removable solid-state media or internal flash chips to store data.


The sound of budget video cameras can be improved by something as simple as the Zoom H1, a tiny solid-state recorder with an X/Y stereo mic setup on the front. The H1 records to Micro SDHC cards, and using the simple sync methods described here, will capture much better audio than a typical DSLR or hybrid camera.
