Zoom F1-SP audio recorder with shotgun microphone

Zoom F1-SP audio recorder with shotgun microphone

This version has a shotgun microphone. If you want a lapel microphone, see the Zoom F1-LP .

The Zoom F1-SP is a 2-track recorder that comes with a high-quality SGH-6 shotgun microphone. The F1-SP recorder is also compatible with various Zoom microphone modules, so you can expand your set with the microphone that suits you best. In addition, the recorder has a 3.5mm microphone jack for, for example, a lapel microphone.

The recorder is designed to fit in a pocket for discreet use or can be attached to a belt using the included clip, allowing you to carry the recorder with you when recording interviews, for example.

The recorder's limiter and auto level technologies prevent spikes or clipping in the recording, and it's still easy to use. The low-cut filter reduces low rumble-like sounds, making the sound cleaner and clearer, so speech, for example, remains clearer.

The mic/line input is a 3.5mm jack and has a power supply, so the recorder can use a wide range of microphones. The output is also a 3.5mm jack and can be used for connecting headphones or, for example, a system camera.

Lithium batteries can provide up to 11 hours of use, and the hold function prevents interruptions in recording caused by accidental presses.
