Ready for recording:
Attach your F1 and shotgun microphone to the shock mount and mount it on your camera. Then connect the F1 audio output to your camera input with a 3.5mm stereo cable, and you're ready to record! The SMF-1 shock mount and stereo cable are included in the Zoom F1 base package.
Dual audio recording:
When shooting with a video camera, the F1 can also record and save sound separately in a stereo file on a microSD card. This file can be useful for editing during post-production.
Bright lighting? No problem:
Monitor volume levels, battery charge, and other settings on the new monochrome display, which is readable even in direct sunlight.
One-touch control:
One-touch control buttons make it easy to access recording parameters, limiter, and volume.
Smooth operation:
The SMF-1 shock mount is specially designed to eliminate unwanted noise created by vibrations when shooting in motion.
Everything a videographer needs:
Calibration and synchronization. The tone generator will assist you in setting audio levels, while sound markers significantly simplify the audio and video editing process.
Full overload protection. The built-in limiter will protect your recording from overload and safeguard against short-term level spikes.
