Zoom Q2n Zoom Handy Video Recorder

Product Information

In the description of the Zoom device it consistently mentions that you can use it in all lighting conditions, but despite the scene modes and High Dynamic Resolution (HDR) there are still a lot of complaints that good lighting is required to get higher quality images preset settings are already very good, but of course to get the best results you need to spend a little time fiddling around with settings, which really takes an hour tops to try them all. Records directly to microSD, microSDHC and microSDXC cards up to 256 GB for extended recording times

Now that is all well and good, but what about the technical data? After all, you want to ensure that it’s going to be high enough quality to achieve the perfect recording for both audio and video. sure, some phones offer amazing recording quality nowadays, but that usually drains battery and storage. I am a drummer and use it to record practice, ideas and band rehearsals. It never peaks or distorts, unless set on audio only recording ad too close to the kit. We’ve researched the product, providing an overview, a look into the main features and technical specs, as well as what and who this product might be most useful for, a summary of the pros and cons and ultimately our opinion.USB mic function (with low-latency direct monitoring) when used with computers and iOS devices (Apple Camera Connection Kit or Lightning to USB Camera Adapter required for use with iOS devices)

The other issue, as we touched on in the cons section, is the battery power, it’s poor. The device only offers the option of having 2x AA batteries, which no matter how efficient the device is, it’s not going to last and is quite an outdated power option for a device of it’s kind. We would have really liked to see the option of a rechargeable battery or as this is a device that is meant to remain static, mains power would make a lot more sense.In truth, it’s suitable for whenever you need a high-quality video and audio solution, whatever that may be. Pro’s & Con’s of The Zoom Q2n-4K The High Dynamic Range or HDR technology, as it’s often referred to, on offer in this Zoom device will allow it to automatically adjust to the surrounding lighting, which means you won’t need to have stage lights to get a better picture which also means you won’t be blowing out the shot with overexposing your stage lights and ruining the picture. of course this is not a pro videomaker tool so don't expect to look like a fancy youtube star after the first recordings, but for the price and the ease of use, you won't get any better!
