Detailed Description
The Zoom F2-BT is an ultra-compact, belt-mountable field recorder optimized for capturing clear, distortion-free dialogue and audio in a variety of professional and creative settings. Its 32-bit float recording technology eliminates the need for gain adjustments and prevents clipping, allowing users to record both very quiet and very loud sounds with pristine clarity.
The included LMF-2 lavalier microphone features an omnidirectional polar pattern for consistent voice capture regardless of subject movement, and its locking 3.5mm connector ensures a secure connection. Three windscreens are provided to reduce wind noise during outdoor recording.
Bluetooth connectivity enables wireless control of recording functions, battery status, output volume, and low-cut filtering through the free Zoom F2 Control app on iOS and Android devices. Additionally, the F2-BT can synchronize timecode wirelessly when paired with an UltraSync BLUE device (sold separately), making it suitable for professional audio-for-video workflows.
Recordings are saved directly to microSD cards (up to 512 GB), and files can be transferred to a computer via USB Type-C. The F2 Editor software for Mac and Windows allows users to configure device settings and format storage cards. The recorder’s simple one-touch controls and LED indicators provide intuitive operation without navigating complex menus.
The device runs on two AAA batteries, offering up to 14 hours of continuous recording, and supports multiple power sources including lithium and NiMH rechargeable batteries or an AC adapter. Its compact dimensions (57.5 × 46.4 × 22.4 mm) and lightweight design (32 g) make it easy to conceal on a subject or carry in a pocket.
