The current Sony TRV-9 (and the soon-to-be-current Sony TRV-900)
can both record through the analogue inputs (US models, anyway...).
Be aware that the TRV-9 with its "night-shot" mode has become a bit
of a legend (quite literally...;-) of late, due to its purported ability to
"see" through clothing (not really true, under most
circumstances...;-), and it may be in short supply. The TRV-9 is
quite small.
