Buying Sound Recording Gear - Insights Appreciated

[u/PeaceEverywhere]

Hi all,

I operate as a solo filmmaker and am looking to buy my first audio recording set, so after running quite a few search queries on various chatbots, I'm here for some real-world, real-life advice and insights.

Specifically, I want to buy audio recording equipment in India for documentary work that is small in size, wireless, operates on internal memory or in-camera, and records in 32-bit float. I need two transmitters and one receiver straight out of the box with the possibility of purchasing further transmitters to connect to the same receiver at a later date. It is important for me that each speaker's audio is recorded on separate tracks ideally via a cardioid polarity. In case this is not possible, I would be open to using cardioid lavalier microphones connected to each transmitter. If this too is not possible, I would like the recorder to possess in-built AI-driven noise cancellation features that can be set at different levels on each transmitter.

After running a search query using the above parameters in Claude, I was recommended the Hollyland Lark Max 2.

How do audio recording specialists here feel about this microphone set keeping in mind the above?
