Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “Zoom H1 Unboxing & Overview”.
What’S up guys, it’s Lou from unbox therapy and today we’re taking a look at the zoom h1 handy recorder. This is a stereo recorder which also has a microphone input. If you want to use an external mic with it, it’s become very popular for youtubers and filmmakers alike, especially people who shoot with digital SLRs that have terrible audio on the top of them. It’S powered by a double-a battery and it’s really portable really light. You could stick it in your pocket, hook, a lav mic up to it and it would be a much cheaper solution than a wireless lav system.
Now the device is mostly made out of plastic, but it’s cheap. So you can understand why it will be made out of plastic. It’S only about a hundred bucks. You got a line out for monitoring your audio via headphones and a volume rocker up at the top side of the left-hand side below that you’ve got a micro, SDHC slot.
This comes preloaded with a 2 gigabyte card on the other side of the unit. We’Ve got a USB port, a power and hold switch a trash button. We’Ve got our play: pause, fast-forward, rewind, an input, level rocker and a line in, as I said before, you can use this to use an external mic if you prefer the quality or attributes of that particular mic on the top of the unit. We have the stereo mics.
These ones are in an XY pattern below that we have our LCD screen with some basic information and a record button. Very simple, not too many buttons on the front side. On the back of the unit, we have a tripod mount for mounting a device. You can also mount it on a hot shoe, with an adapter, a low-cut filter, auto level and a record format switch.
Now we’ve got a little bit of documentation included, which is to be expected, and here’s a look at that micro sd, I was talking about, comes with an adapter which is always welcome. We also get an SD card usage precautions sheet. So apparently, you do not want to bend or drop this SD card. I have never received a sheet like that before.
There is also an accessory kit that you can buy for your zoom h1. It comes with a tripod, along with a wall power adapter, a microphone adapter to put it in a microphone mount as well as a little windscreen for it and a carrying case anyway guys. This has been the unboxing I’ll. Let you know how it sounds in a later video if you haven’t liked us on Facebook, yet go ahead and do so and also follow us on Twitter.
