Along theses lines I was wondering the following two things with regard to
recorders:

What kind of microphones work with the line in? Do they have to be powered?
(My pc microphone didn't do anything).
and

What are your best preferred recording settings that give best battery

*Lectures/conversations
*Videos/movie
*concerts
*ambient/environment noise
*any others you can think of!
