ZOOM F2-BT – FIELD RECORDER BLUETOOTH + MICROFONO LAVALIER

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. The F2 features 32-bit float recording technology, allowing you to record the loudest audio signals without worrying about clipping. It will also record the quietest signals in beautiful detail. And the best part is you don’t have to worry about setting the gain. Just plug in the lav and hit record. Once you start your recording, use the F2’s HOLD switch to ensure you don’t accidentally stop recording. Screw-lock connectors keep your lav plugged-in securely no matter the situation. With the F2 actors can record and playback their lines to perfect their delivery.

The F2 editor for PC and Mac allows you to adjust settings, format SD cards and more. Simply connect your F2 or F2-BT via a USB cable and launch the editor. The USB connection also makes it easy to transfer files to your computer. Whether a stroll through your garden or the whispers and shouts of a dramatic reading, the F2 provides crystal clear recordings. The F2 can record up to 15 hours (14 hours on the F2-BT) with two AAA batteries. Record on microSD, microSDHC and microSDXC cards up to 512GB. The LMF-2 omnidirectional lavalier microphone has a low-profiled design, captures high-quality audio, and includes a windscreen and lapel mic clip. The F2 field recorder gives you the option to choose the recording format that works best for your projects. Choose from 44.1 kHz/32-bit float or 48 kHz/32-bit float mono WAV files.

The F2-BT comes with built-in Bluetooth. And with the free Zoom F2 control app ( for iOS / Android ) the F2-BT can wirelessly start/stop recordings, display battery levels, adjust output volume, control lo-cut and more. You can also pair the F2-BT with a Bluetooth timecode synchronization device to receive and write timecode to recorded files.
