The folks at CNet have published a nice, detailed review of the Sony PCM-D50 digital audio recorder, complete with a video, a few decent photos (including the one to the right which shows just how ridiculous the D50 looks with a windscreen and a funny looking tripod), and a video review.
They rave over the PCM-D50’s advanced features, relatively low price, and excellent sound quality. But they also have the usual complaints, the recorder doesn’t record in the MP3 format, and if you use up the 4GB of internal memory, you need to use a proprietary Sony memory stick for expansion.
The ‘funny looking tripod’ is a Gorillapod (http://www.joby.com/products/gorillapod/)
and something that no one using one of these things should be without!
We use the Gorillapod Original and the larger Gorillapod SLR-ZOOM.
