Introducing the Zoom F2 field recorder with lavalier microphone
For podcasters, videographers, bloggers, journalists and more, the F2 is the perfect audio solution for creators on the move. The F2 is incredibly small, but its audio quality will amaze you, featuring 32-bit float recording technology which allows you to record the loudest audio signals without worrying about clipping. It will also record the quietest signals in beautiful detail, and the low-pass filter allows you for removal of any unwanted noise at the source. And the best part is you don’t have to worry about changing the gain. Just plug in the mic and hit record!
All-round sound
For the finest recording results, ensure the lavalier microphone is attached to the presenter with the supplied microphone clip, once in place connect it directly to the F2 via the 3.5mm cable. Thanks to the lavalier microphone's omnidirectional polar pattern, you'll be guaranteed a 360 degree pick-up range. This captures sound from every angle, ensuring consistency regardless of positioning and movement. It is also excellent for naturally reducing proximity effect, allowing you to place the microphone close to the source, without the fear of unnatural "boom" dominating your recordings. Make the most of the three complimentary windscreens to minimise the risk of wind compromising those crucial takes.
Multiple choices
The F2 is incredibly versatile. When recording, you'll be able to choose between 32-bit / 44.1 kHz or 32-bit / 48 kHz resolutions. Thanks to their uncompressed format, your recordings will sound exactly the same as when you created them. To get the sound right at source, engage the in-built 80Hz high-pass filter, this eradicates any build-up of low-frequency content to save you having to reach for EQs in the post-production stage.
Never run out of space
The F2's ability to record directly to a microSD/microSDHC/microSDXC (not included) ensures you'll never run out of memory. Supporting up to 512GB of memory, when your card is full, simply archive and format, or buy a new one.
In-sync
There's nothing worse than when it comes to post-production and your audio and video files are out of sync. To make sure this is never an issue for you, Zoom have included a state-of-the-art, high-precision internal clock (±0.5ppm) within the F2.
