Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great audio. I paired my zoom H5 with Ntg 4+ The sound is Crisp!

I had the H4n for quite a time and it was definitely worth upgrading to this.

This recorder has crisp clear results. My son is using it at school where he is a music major.

Great audio quality. Little weird getting an xlr mic to work but great now that I figured it out!

Really easy to use and set up. Came with all the accessories I needed for a basic prject!

This is by far one of the best investments for podcasting.

I used it for the first time yesterday and fell in love with it! I cannot recommend enough!

Zoom - H5 Handy Recorder works well/exactly as described.

It has excellent sound quality from its recordings. I mostly use it for recording sounds in nature.

It’s the best for sound and it’s legit good. I use this for my classes

An excellent high quality product that meets my expectations.

Used it for professional videos and turned out great.

You have a portable studio in your hands, really good quality.

A good improvement over the H4N. However I ended up returning the product not due to any dissatisfaction with the quality of operation (I never even opened the box) but rather I decided I wanted the color display of the H6 which also offers a VU meter and other enhanced display features. The graphics on the H5 are like those on the H4N - clunky and look like a crude display from decades ago. The display on the H6 are much better.

It has manual gain controls to control how much signal goes through the mic as well as accessorie mic attachmants where the mic capture pttern can be change so the recorder can capture sound in different ways.

This is great for outdoors and live concerts. I'm glad I bought this instead of H4.

I use this to record sound for weddings. It works really great, and I love being able to dial record from the LR channels and by getting a line in. It is great to ensure sound.

Used before. Great audio for on the go interviews.

This was great, easy set up, great recording. Only reason I didn't keep it was that I found I could just add more memory to my computer and go that route.

I had an earlier version but I love the H5 Handy Record. It is incredible and easy to control. Only thing I am not a fan of is how fast the batteries die when using this.
