Review of the Zoom H2 Handy Recorder
Introduced on Feb 2007 this “handy” little recorder is cheap and versatile. I personally dont have a lot of experience with this gadget so i shall refrain from giving recommendations. But instead i will point to some nice reviews done by other experts.
I have said it before and it bears repeating: if you want professional features, prepare to pay professional prices. If you want a dandy little recorder that won’t break the bank, fits in your pocket, and does a fine job, then get this H2.
I’ve wanted something like this my whole life, and this thing delivers. I give it a ten out of ten for performance and price.
The H2 is my little friend. I’ll whisper my secrets to him and he’ll paint my thoughts on the ether. IT SOUNDS GREAT!
- Wiki page at wikipedia.com
- Product page at Zoom (Samsontech.com)
- Latest firmware (1.30) at zoom.co.jp
- Find and buy it at google (around $180)
Nice to know
- Records in WAV and MP3
- Runs on 2 AA Batteries
- USB connection is the older 1.1version (so 12 MB/s)
- Connected to the computer, can be used as a audio capturing device.
- Is very cheap
- Has not 1, 2, 3 but 4 internal microphones…
- Uses a SD/SDHC Memory card.
Still i prefer the Edirol R-09HR
