Zoom F3 Field Recorder

With 32-bit float recording, the F3 effortlessly captures the quietest raindrops and the loudest explosions. Its small footprint allows for this recorder to be placed anywhere, as you capture and monitor up to 192 kHz of high-quality audio.

When you’re working in the field or on set, sound levels can fluctuate often and quickly. The F3 allows you to adapt to your scene without having to set the gain or worry about clipping. In post, you’ll be able to work with your capture, regardless of extremely low or high levels.

Featuring the same dual A/D converters and low-noise preamps found throughout the F-Series, the F3 guarantees high-quality recordings in any setting or situation.

With a standard tripod mount and durable side bars included, the F3 is built for placement in a variety of environments. Its sturdy build ensures that you can mount it on your gear or hide it in your scene.

Monitor your recordings with seamless accuracy as the F3 displays your audio as real-time waveforms.
