Is there a lavalier or an additional accessory that you would recommend for the H1? I noticed that other lavs only record one channel

Audio technica has a nice little lave that reuses a battery but works well and isn't too expensive. Palm azon has it. It has a stereo plug too.

I don't have a lavalier myself yet, so I can't really recommend one from personal experience, but the Azden ones look pretty promising.

I bought it singly. There are a slightly less expensive model which I have as L,R,RL,RR and are almost as good and are available as pairs. This one is better as center channel.

Dear Kevin, I just received an e-mail regarding a question you have about a Sony Lav Mic that I own. Yes the Sony UWPV1/3032 Lav Mic will record your voice. I personally use this mic with the Sony NEX-VG10 Video camera. I use it when the subject is to far from the camera and sound cannot be picked up at the camera location. In this application the mic picks up the sound speech from the subject and transmits the sound to the camera, which records the voice onto a memory chip. When I play the recording back on the camera or a computer I can here the sound that was recorded. This mic will send sound to a video camera or a computer. However, if you want to record the sound for future playback you need a recording medium like a memory stick. Sony has created a very high quality mic that I am very pleased with. In my application it is superb and far ahead of all competition. I hope that this answered your question, if not please feel free to e-mail me at delmareddy@gmail.com Good luck, ED

A Zoom H1 is a great, relatively simple choice. If you think you will be going into other audio that might require XLR inputs, you might want to spring for the Zoom H4 instead. That will give you 2 XLR inputs into which you can plug other microphones.

Hi Richard, no there is not. It only comes with the lav mic that you see in the picture. It's a great mic, though. Overall, I am extremely pleased with this mic system. I believe you can order a cable that will fit into a handheld mic that will plug into the transmitter. You could maybe find that at B&H.;

Hey guys, I am joining this conversation late, but I am looking for a VAD-HA for my H20 but the only one I found is one listed here on Amazon for $239. That seems steep, I've looked on ebay and other camera websites and no luck. If you know where I can find one let me know, thanks!

I have the same microphone and used my iphone4 to record and only got the recording through the onboard mic. The lapel is great but I think it is set up for use with recorders. I use it with the ZoomH1 but you could use a cheaper recorder Olympus VN-7200 Digital Voice Recorder (V404130BU000)

Thanks again david.I remember reading some of the flash based camcorders record on .MOD files, which are somewhat hard to work with.This will be my first camcorder purchase in a long while (my last was a sony digital-8...), so your advice is well needed and appreciated.

Yes, the biggest differences will be that you only have 8 channels instead of 16, and this recorder will be able to record at a higher resolution than the older one. H.264 is a high compression codec that has a max resolution of I think 320 X 240 whereas the D1 is a similar compression but up to 720 lines. The cameras will work fine on both.

First of all, there are 3 different L1 models, one of which won't even accept this audio engine. Second, it is a mixer, not a recorder: but you can output from the mixer to a recording device.

Highly recommended, even though is not the original lavalier works perfect in sennheiser transmitter. Works as a directional microphone, captures perfectly the voice of the person wearing the lavalier, it might not capture well enough the surrounding sounds.

I would highly recommend VideoSecu, portable DVR. A\C plug required. Records to SD card, Love it!

All this is very true. I solved the problem by going to a Cannon. I don't always have the ability to record an seperate audio track. In studio I can. I use Pinnacle 18 as my editing tool so a seperate channel is no problem! I wish you luck. I will stick to Cannon!

Thanks for the help, I'm going nuts trying to get this to work. It will play the video with cable I got from RadioShack but won't record. I don't think the one I have is bilingual, so this is my last option.Thanks again!

http://www.youtube.com/user/artfacestudios/videos?view=0 these videos were pretty much all made with the hvr a1u. From the youtube clips ive seen using the dcrvx2100, i can tell you they seem similar, but maybe the dcrvx2100 is a little on top... Low light on the a1u is grainy, not as bad as some videos ive seen, but definitely noticeable! I also want to find a good low light video camera... Also a little off topic but...i will take the a1u footage over gopro hero2 footage any day. My friend shoots with a Canon D5 or something like that. He really has a lot of control with the camera and his footage is very similar to the a1u. Maybe even better! http://www.youtube.com/user/artfacestudios/videos?view=0 these videos were pretty much all made with the hvr a1u.

It does not have a mini jack and you cannot use a lavaliere mic. It does have a mic zoom built in with the on board mics. Go though the menu to find it.
