Routine Videotaping concerts

I love having small, simple compact video cameras for concerts. I have a FLIP HD camera (I forget if it’s mino or ultra) and the video is great. The sound, of course, is terrible, as it is on even a compact Sony or comparable brand with a built-in mic. But I also now have the Zoom Q3, with not-so-great video (although I hear a HD one is coming soon) and UNBELIEVABLE sound. For obvious reasons, the Q3 is now my recorder of choice for kids’ concerts. Sound is more important. You can also shut of the camera and make sound files with it - straight into itunes. I suspect I’ll give it to my son once the HD video version is out.
