Zoom H5 Review + Why It's Useful in Video Production

An in-depth, hands-on review of the new Zoom H5 recorder, with a focus on how the new features can help your video productions. Read my full blog post on the H5 here: http://goo.gl/fVifj6

For a long time I wanted an audio manufacturer to come out with an ultra-compact field recorder that featured at least two XLR inputs, and until I tried out the Zoom H5, I thought that no one ever did. Now the recorder I wanted is here, and it does a lot more to aid you in video production than I ever imagined a little device like this would.

I love how you can remove the microphone module from the front, and either leave it off to have a super-lightweight recorder to work with, or add the SGH-6 shotgun module, which creates an impressive solution for recording sound in a shoulder-mount video rig. The fact that you can get the EXH-6 module, which adds two more XLR inputs to the H5 (albeit, two inputs that lack phantom power), is just bonkers, and very, very cool. This is an entry-level budget device, let's not forget.

I can go on and on about the pros and cons of the new Zoom H5, and I do exactly that in the post over at my blog: http://goo.gl/fVifj6
