Designed for the "run-and-gun" video creators, Zoom has announced the F1 Field Recorder, its latest solution for capturing professional-quality audio for video in a stealth-like form factor. The F1 is compatible with all Zoom microphone capsules and is shipping, initially, with either the shotgun microphone or a lavalier microphone. This tiny field recorder offers several essential features for videographers, including a tone generator for setting levels, sound markers for aligning audio and video, an on-board limiter to keep your levels in check when loud spikes in volume occur, and a Rec Hold function to avoid accidental operation of buttons.

The F1 is a two-channel recorder with a 1.25" monochrome LCD screen that supports up to 24-bit/96 kHz audio in BWF-compliant WAV or a variety of MP3 formats. There is a stereo 1/8" mic/line input with plug-in power (2.5V) and an 1/8" stereo phone/line output jack with a dedicated volume control. The audio is recorded directly to a micro SD and SDHC card (up to 32GB). A micro-USB port is available for data exchange to and from a computer, as well as for use as an audio interface with a computer or iOS device. The F1 utilizes two standard AAA alkaline, Lithium, or NiMH rechargeable batteries, or an AC adapter (AD-17), and offers a run time of up to 10 hours.



The F1 Field Recorder + Shotgun Mic includes the SGH-6 shotgun microphone, which is designed to capture professional-quality audio with hyper directional sound. The packaging also includes a shock mount, windscreen, stereo mini cable for DSLR, and two AAA batteries. The shotgun mic easily snaps to the F1, which is mounted on a camera via the shock mount. This system is designed to replace the sub-par microphone found on most DSLR cameras.



The F1 Field Recorder + Lavalier Mic includes the LMF-1 lavalier microphone, which is designed to capture professional-quality audio from the source and is well suited for interviews, wedding vows, ENG, and more. The package also includes a mic clip, a belt clip, a windscreen, and two AAA batteries. The lavalier connects to the F1's 1/8" connector, while the belt clip and mic clip help secure the entire system out of view.
