would this be suitable to improve the sound of videos of music performances at small venues shot with a cell phone?

Yes, as long as you take the wind screen off. I find it gives a scratchy sound to audio. As long as you are not too close to the audio source your levels should not be overblown.

I would assume yes, as it's just a Bluetooth audio of your phone sounds. But I have not used it for video.

It has a good sound for personal performance. It would not be great in a large area.

I suspect that it would depend upon how far away from the source the equipment was placed. The speakers are tinny so it is not great for music but is ok for voice recordings.

Clever idea. You'll need to be able to record your audio, load it onto your microSD card for playback. It will work fine.

I would say that if you were editing small movies, from say your smart phone, and using iMovie then yes you could. But if it's anything more than small movies I would not suggest it.

Yes to both questions. However, the sound quality isn't the best for music.

Absolutely. However, it would be advised to use some external recorder like the zoom H1 to capture audio and sink up the audio later

Absolutely. There are levels of sensitivity in the mic and it can capture good quality sound from several yards away.

Yes but you might want one with a mike for phone conversations. Excellent for music.

As long as you can use a small tripod or hold it very still, it should work great for concerts and the like

I think it's better used for recording. It requires phantom power. However It could be used and could sound good if the levels are good.

I didn't use it for the calls, but I believe for a call the sound should be okay. But music is no where close to what I expected.

Yes. It makes good videos on live shows like rock and pop concerts. Very good sound quality. Check this out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Pr3HfJT66E

No it won't Because the back Camera, speakers and the size are all positioned differently. Your sound would be blocked your back Camera would be blocked and the sized doesn't match.

Maybe - it can do. Depends what you mean by 'quality' - it's not a DSLR with huge lens. Samsung Galaxy Camera has twice the zoom. Flash won't reach - depends on the stage lighting.

depends on the power of the player the phones are plugged into. They can be unbearable loud if the player has the power.
