Great product. Great sound, lots of options, easy to use, easy to sync with video using Adobe Premiere or Pinnacle Studio (probably easy in other video editing software, too.)

It is quite complicated to set up. I had an older version of the same item, which I liked a lot better. The main thing is the record/pause button on the old one lit up and this new one only has a small red light at the top. The lighted button made it much easier to record in low-light situations. This new one does not have a provision to use a power converter instead of batteries. Somewhat disappointed in the changes.

I bought this unit for both field and studio recording. It has turned out to be a good investment for me. It works very well, the internal microphones have good quality, but you will probably need a wind screen when using the DR-05 outdoors if there is any breeze. The many recording and playback options make the DR-05 a versatile tool for any recordist. The audio playback quality is excellent. Adding a good quality set of earphones makes for a highly pleasurable listening experience when playing back high quality music files. Some testing revealed that when recording 96kb WAV files,using the external input jack, the DR-05 will record and play back frequencies up to 44 KHz. The built-in microphones have acceptable response up to 30 KHz, with decreasing pickup out to about 40 KHz. Battery life is reasonable. I purchased some rechargeable NiMh cells to save on battery costs, but most of the time I power the DR-05 via the USB port when recording in the studio. Transferring audio files to and from the DR-05 through the USB port to a computer is fast and easy, or you may remove the SD card and use a card reader if you prefer. I did my homework before purchasing the DR-05, and have been quite pleased with this recorder.Read full review

Had a hard time deciding between this and zoom H1, this one is better built and due to 2 aa batteries last longer, sound of the built-in mics is studio quality soo impressed with it, lots of awesome features, very simple operation, this will improve any filmmaker's audio quality dramatically, so happy to have it!!

I guess this thing is okay, but I can't follow the instructions. They are written for someone that understands the tech words they use. Half of what I am told to do I can't do because they tell me to do things using words I don't know the meaning of. Instead of putting the directions in five languages, maybe they should use one language (determined when ordering) and a lot more every day English to explain what they are telling tech challenged would be users to do.
