The Zoom Q8n-4K Handy Video Recorder is a compact 4K camcorder designed for content creators, musicians, and filmmakers who favor simple and convenient recording solutions. Key features include:

Selectable wide-angle 150° lens

Small but Handy. The Zoom Q8n-4K Handy Video Recorder weighs less than a pound, captures high-quality audio and video, is easy to use, and is affordable. It even features a flip-out color LCD and a detachable microphone. Rather than packing feature after feature that most content creators might never use, the Q8n-4K focuses on delivering high quality audio and video as seamlessly and conveniently as possible.
4K/30 FPS Footage. The Zoom Q8n comfortably records UHD 4K at 30 fps, and the f/2.8 aperture keeps the image clear even in moody studio lighting. The wide angle lens has a native 150° FOV, but with five selectable FOV options, you can frame tighter, close up shots with ease. The Q8n can function as a USB webcam, and features a micro-HDMI port for use with external monitors.
Ease of Use. 5 scene modes are available for common lighting situations, and the Q8n can use ambient lighting to pick whichever works best wherever you record. To make things even more simple, recording footage is as simple as pressing a button, and the LCD screen flips out for selfie-style recording. Compatible with microSD cards up to 512GB, you can safely record an entire rehearsal or show onto a single card without worrying about running out of space. Please note, recording times will vary based on video resolution and battery life. The Q8n features a rechargeable battery with a max runtime of 2.5 hours.
High Quality Audio. The Zoom Q8n features 2 stereo condenser microphones arranged in an X/Y pattern. Audio can be recorded with video or as separate WAV files up to 24-bit/96 kHz, allowing it to function as a 4-channel audio recorder. Audio functions include auto gain, a low-cut filter, two phantom-powered XLR inputs with a switchable -20 dB pad for external recording, and a headphone output for audio monitoring.
