My experience has been that the internal mics of the Zoom H2 will
serve you better than any inexpensive mic you plug into its microphone
input, which is quite noisy.

I recently compared the microphone input on the Zoom to my ancient
Sony MZ-R37 minidisc recorder and the difference was shocking.

I suspect the results of the internal mics would be considerably
better than using an MS957 class external mic. Haven't tried it, but
that's my suspicion.

I find the internal mics to be pleasantly good.
