I am in a dilemma between getting the zoom Q3 camera and flipping the camera.Q3 should have better audio.In most cases, a separate external microphone may not be required.\ Rq3 make 2 GB files per hour using SD card (up to 32 GB.Compared to flipping the internal 8 gb 2 hour limit and 4 gb/hr file size, this is a 16 hour vacation record.\ RQ3 shoot 640x480 and 1280x720 for zoom.I mostly used 640x480 resolution, which seems to be a good compromise between online video quality and file size.\ RI thinks Zoom has 2X zoom on q3, No.\ R they all use AA batteries and make edited mp4 files.\ RThe Q3 is $100 more than Zoom.If it's more suited to your needs, it's no big deal.\ RHere \ is a direct (non-affiliated) link to Amazon.\ RI \ is tilting towards Q3 for better audio, SD card features and a more convenient 640x480 format.\ RI knows how much love the flip gained in WF, and Q3 got a lot of love on the musician's website because of its audio copy.Have you tried Q3?\rThoughts?
