   Of course you can with a hand held cam with a single and probably cheap   
   microphone, which can only record mono, capture the 5 channel Dolby audio   
   in superb quality if you have audience next to you, eating popcorn,   
   laughing and farting. Your image will also be 3D on your 10" netbook   
   screen. Not even glasses needed for that, so good is the video quality.
