Best audio recording option for videos?
I have an iPhone I'm attaching atop a tripod of mine that I plan to shoot video with. I'd like to record high-quality sound for these videos, so I'm looking to buy an external microphone. What should I do? Should I buy a Sony lapel microphone that I can attach to a Sony voice recorder?
If you're going to stick with an iPhone as your video device and are wanting more mobility I would suggest starting with some simple like the rode smartlav.
If your looking for great quality, keep in mind that a wired mic will provide better quality than a wireless mic. The microphone type (Shot Gun, Boom pole, wireless, wired) really depends on the type of video your shooting (mobile, stationary, etc).
I have a very large collection of mics, however for YouTube videos I tend to lean towards the H2n and H4n. At times I will attach Studio condenser and ribbon mics to these devices.

- Why doesn't the audio show up in my iOS 11 screen recording? I have the beta version of iOS 11 and have been using the screen recording function. However, the audio from what I'm doing on my phone doesn't always show up on the final video. I'm thinking it is just because of the length. I recorded a video about a minute long to test, but the video I tried to record is around 20 minutes. Is this on purpose or is it a glitch? And is there a way I can fix it?
- Voice recording apps on iPhone with a loop option?

- Recording iPhone game, Can't sync video to audio? Hello I'm recording my iphone 4s screen with display recorded, there's no lag at all. I'm also using an aux jack to my computer to record the sound through audacity. I'm using Pinnacle HD Studio 15 for my video editing. The problem is i can't get the audio to sync to the video. Every time i play the preview the audio is quite far behind the video, Even though i'm pressing record on my iphone and comp at the same time.
