I used to use a Fostex AR4i on my iphone 4s, very good interface with 3 stereo or mono inputs, but the problem with using iphone or ipad for video (apart from the picture quality) is that once you go over a certain file size transferring to the computer becomes a pain, basically it won’t allow files over a certain size to be sent, I can’t remember the workaround but it was painful.
The Roland UA11 mk2 works with newer ipads and iphones, pretty good too.
So far though I’m really liking the Sony HDR MV1, built exactly for recording music video, and the line in is very good quality, also you get a free app to tweak the audio which works well. Also the low light performance blows most other stuff away, something which I thought the ipad and iphone were terrible at, very grainy.
