The Zoom F1-LP is a portable 2-track field recorder designed for videographers and independent filmmakers. There is an onboard limiter and auto level control to ensure distortion-free 24-bit audio. The LMF-1 Lavalier mic connects directly to the F1, eliminating interference or noise commonly experienced when using belt pack systems. The microphone has been designed to capture every nuance and avoid missing any crucial sound. The recorder also comes equipped with the Zoom 10-pin connector, allowing you to attach one of six available microphone options. There are great features such as Auto-Lock, which is used to prevent accidentally hitting a button unintentionally, and an onboard limiter that will keep your levels safe when sudden spikes in volume occur.
