A closer look at the Zoom H2 portable field recorder by Doug Boyd, Director of the Louie B. Nunn Center for Oral History at the University of Kentucky Libraries.
I hope they gave you a freebie for doing this, Doug. Al joking aside, this is a phenomenal amount of bang for your buck and I cannot understand why the world is not yet awash with such high quality solid state recorders. When you compare this with -say - the Walkman Pro, we are like on a different planet. Come to think of it, a very lazy Planet that would rather download than record. I wish playback of recorded files was easier and you could pause and resume your recordings.
Nice job. Although I have had this unit for quite some time, your video was interesting to me. It would be very beneficial to someone looking at the H2 for the first time. . .
Check out the amazing demo video for the new Wind-Jacket for the Zoom H2 at TheWindCutter!

Hi Doug...Just so you know, my H2 has official specs as: Recording Media:SD memory card(16MB-2GB), SDHC memory card(4GB-32GB)
I use a 16GB SDHC with no problem. If your H2 is only accepting SD cards, make sure you have the latest firmware.
Nice video!
