Review on Portable recorder ZOOM H1n black by Lorz Batan ᠌

1. Battery powered. I knew this before I bought it, but I didn't think it would be such a big problem. Firstly, you will not have enough batteries for any 10 hours. They were enough for me for an hour and a half of recorded material. And that's with even less overall downtime. Thanks at least that the recorder is powered by a power bank. But the way he does it. (see point #3). 2. Bottom equipment. I don’t understand what prevented me from putting a piece of foam rubber into the box to the device for 8,000 - a windscreen? Even the banal USB cable was clamped. Not to mention at least some mini tripods or mounts. I'm surprised: only the device and a couple of batteries. Well, thank you for that. 3. Auto power off. I admit that I'm doing something wrong here, but the device constantly turns off spontaneously after a few minutes of inactivity. Yes, in the settings I disabled auto-shutdown when powered by batteries, but it did not help. That is, when powered by a power bank, the device, after standing for a few minutes, simply takes it and turns off. And this is downright infuriating! Not only does it need to be turned on again, but the date and time settings are lost. It's just tin, comrades! 4. Brake activation. Given that the device has to be turned on every time after auto-shutdown, this is very annoying. First, you must first pull the wire out of it - otherwise it will not turn on. And secondly, from the moment you press the monstrously uncomfortable button "On." It takes 10 seconds before you can start recording! Excellent efficiency! 5. Lack of isolation of microphones from the case. How is that possible? Well, okay, as a professional, it didn’t occur to me to record something while holding the recorder in my hands, but for the isolation of the microphones from the body to be so bad . For you to understand, at the very first session I attached the recorder to the camera in place of the flash . The mount was good, reliable, the camera was on a tripod. And what is the result? As a result, the recorder completely took over all the noise of the almost silent camera, thereby ruining the entire recording.
