Just got a Zoom Q3HD, I'm very impressed so far. I've been moving around lots of stuff lately, so I don't really have a kit set up right now, but I did take a video right after I got it, and a few minutes of a gig I played.
To those of y'all who have one of these cameras, what gain setting do you use? Auto, or high? Also, any tips on positioning it for the best sound? I have a tripod I use. First time, it was about 5 feet from the kit in front, about chest height (sitting). Somewhere I heard that it sounded good about that distance and pretty high up facing down. I don't have much time to experiment, nor do I want to, haha.
I most likely won't be posting any videos, maybe just audio though at some point when I can get a kit set up again...
