The ZOOM H2n is a microphone/recorder purchased in Summer 2013. YSTV had previously borrowed an H2n for [[hist:Campus: A Tale of Terrors|Campus: A Tale of Terrors]], which was filmed solely using D-SLR cameras, as external microphones recorded directly to the D-SLRs result in noise. Film review show [[hist:Front Row|Front Row]] was also filmed using D-SLRs, as the [[Sony HVR-HD1000E]]s struggle to record in the low-light conditions of the cinema. Prior to the purchase of the H2n, a Sony HVR had to be brought along solely to record the rifle mic.

Due to numerous accidents and failures with the Sony cameras during 2013, they can no longer record to tape - hence making them unusable for pre-recorded content. This has led to increased use of D-SLRs in productions, meaning the H2n has rapidly become the de facto way of recording audio.

There are several 5 V lavalier microphones with 3.5mm TS jack connectors - these must be used with a certain big grey box that converts 48 V phantom power from the desk to the required 5 V. Any clips they once had are long gone, so they currently have mini bulldog clips taped them.
