Hey lovelies, sorry I've been lurking lately and less than vocal, buuuut What are y'all thoughts on the zoom h6? I'm thinking about it as a backup/second recording unit, primarily for those situations where I need to have a lower profile than my standard bag can provide, or where I'm expected to both record from a board feed and need to be a roaming unit at the same time. I do a lot of documentary run and gun, so these situations pop up enough that I'm willing to spend a couple hundred on making my life easier. Initially I was leaning towards the Tascam dr-100mkll, but the 4 xlr inputs on the h6 are a little tempting (though I'm pretty sure I'd just use my beloved nomad for anything over 3). I realize the zoom is well into the "prosumer" genera regarding quality of recordings and I've read a few reviews regarding preamps and noise and whatnot, but my main concerns for what I need from it are physical. The xlrs don't lock, and the control nobs don't lock either and don't have any sort of a protective covering- I'm expecting to occasionally have it in a non-audio bag and I'm concerned about controls getting tousled around. The tascam locks and most of the controls are internal, so I'm imagining it can take more of a thrashing. Has anyone used the zoom6 or have any input?

http://conversations.nokia.com/2013/07/19/we-like-the-sound-of-that-rich-recording-on-nokia-lumia-1020/ lately i've been seeing a lot of web commercials on youtube that were shot on 5D or whatever and using the camera mic for audio capture. on the url above the phone mic seems pretty good for what it is and at least there is a balance between the look of the image (40 mp) and the sound quality. nothing very 'new' in the sense of earth shattering but it shows that some product designers are actually thinking. at first glance, the audio capture mechanism sort of reflects the 'spirit' of zaxcom neverclip, and borrows from dual mic capsule microphones of the past. nokia1020haac.pdf
