Good product, HOWEVER it has serious sync issues.
When trying to sync the audio from the H4 to video, the sound lags after a few minutes and continues to lag more out of sync every few minutes after that. So you have to make several tedious adjustments in post.
A great device for live recording but 2 things. First, there is the new and massively improved Zoom H4n which does so much more and simplifies a lot of the previous complications. Second I noticed as with any other important audio recordings you make, the better the SD card the better sound of the recording and less sound problems with this unit. I suggest using the 2GB SanDisk Ultra II or Extreme III cards in this unit (the difference in sound is amazing) and is the same with the H4n but it has greater capacity and can take a much larger GB card. The extra GB in the H4n alone is worth it especially for using the 96khz 24bit best sound process.
