Review on Portable ZOOM H5 Dark Gray Recorder by Cakra Buana ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I recommend to buy, the product is of high quality.

So far, the recorder has left a double impression. On the one hand, excellent sound recording quality, convenient level control. But the built-in microphone lacks sensitivity. This is disappointing. In a quiet room, to record quiet speech, the regulator has to be set to 8-9, a little noise appears on the recording. External microphones are great. I expected better sound quality. Of course, this is not an mp3 player, but with such a path, they could make the sound more decent. Feeling that there is not enough bottoms. The smartphone plays better sound. Took for use as an on-camera microphone. I confirm that when mounted on a "hot shoe" it catches the sounds of interaction with the camera and the operation of the focusing system.

Pros
  • High build quality. It's nice to hold in your hands. Hard case included. Possibility of use as a sound interface. I like the device as a whole: the screen, ergonomics, features.
Cons
  • - built-in microphone - sound playback
