Hi, 

I am planning a return visit to the fantastic annual jazz festival held on the lake shore in  Ascona Switzerland in 2022.  https://www.jazzascona.ch

On previous visits using the discrete  DLux 109 I obtain excellent 4K video and good sound recording using the camera's internal stereo microphone.(very short segment attached)

As you will be aware, my camera does not have a separate audio/microphone recording input, so to improve the audio recording, I am considering buying a Zoom H2n handy recorder to record  an additional high quality audio copy of each band playing, then  in post editing in FCP X substituting and syncing  the improved sound track to the video recorded.

If anyone has used the DLux 109 and/or Zoom H2n handy recorder I would love to hear your comments.

Keep safe, 

Regards, David
