Overview
The Zoom F1 Field Recorder captures high-quality audio even when the subject is standing far away. An SGH-6 shotgun microphone is provided with the field recorder. The Zoom F1 records 2-channel 24-bit/96 kHz sound in BWF-compliant WAV or MP3 format. It supports microSD or microSDHC cards up to 32 GB. With the dedicated control buttons, you can quickly adjust record level, volume output and make changes in the low-cut filter and limiter control settings. This audio recorder has a proprietary 10-pin connector as well as a 3.5 mm stereo mini jack with its volume control. The monochromatic display can be read in bright conditions comfortably.
