Summary: Just what I needed
Comment: I was searching for a device that would 1) allow me to record a wide array of sounds in high quality and seamlessly upload them to my computer and 2) act as an audio interface for Skype etc. to take the burden off my deteriorating internal microphone (which is now audibly picking up my computer fans). A friend recommended the Zoom H4 Handy Recorder, and I couldn't be happier. The interface is intuitive, the quality is great, and the product offers an enormous number of options.
Although the display is small and a little behind the times, it is nonetheless readable (and backlit). I also ended up spending an extra $10 on a small tripod so I could mount the recorder near my computer when I use it as an interface.

Summary: Highly capable and convenient recorder, somewhat odd interface
Comment: This is the second time I've purchased this recorder, so I must like it well enough (the first one was stolen). I do!
It's sound, it's capabilities and it versatility I find to be first class. That said, the oddnesses it possesses are in it's user interface (rather small screen, and a non-intuitive dual control joystick-like button and jog wheel combo) and its user manual, which has an awful lot of references to other sections in most any section you are reading. It's be easier if these were clickable hyper links as on a web page, but there's no clicking in a paper manual....

Summary: Exactly what it is
Comment: There are some complaints about complexity which you should take as valid if you're not used to working with pro audio equipment. If it doesn't surprise you that you have to press the record button twice, then ignore those complaints. I will agree that the interface design isn't the best, but it is internally consistent so once I got familiar with it I felt much better.
My favorite surprise feature is that if you're using it as an audio interface it's USB powered.
The battery life is pretty short, so invest in quality rechargeables.

Summary: Amazing from Amazon
Comment: I purchased the H4 Zoom with some apprehension. I am so pleasantly surprised. I recorded an 18 piece big band with extraordinary results.
Some tracks sound like pro recordings.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Great recorder at a great price
Comment: I bought this recorder to record live classical music using external microphones requiring phantom power. While figuring out the interface and menu items was a little clumsy, it was relatively easy to use. What's really amazing about this recorder is the clarity of sound, wide frequency range and ease of transporting audio files to my mac. Some reviewers may not like certain features of this recorder - it being made of plastic, SD card and batteries somewhat difficult to get to, etc.. - but for the money it's an astounding little package. I've been really happy with it.
