Zoom F3
The combination of dual AD converters and 32bit float recording, combined with a thoroughly simple design that prevents accidental operation, means that anyone can simply press the REC button and record audio without gain adjustment and without sound distortion. The palm-sized, compact and rugged housing can also be velcroed to a boom microphone.
The new ZOOM F3 is the perfect solution for capturing the sound you can't afford to miss.
