Are the preamps comparable to the f6/f8?
If I use the line out to a camera will it output the 32 bit floating audio?
When plugged into your laptop or tablet by usb-c, can the zoom f3 be powered as well by the usb-c or must it always run on batteries?
Can recording be paused and restarted, saving audio to the same file? Or is it only possible to stop, beginning a new file when you restart?

GREAT 32bit Field Recorder for Solo Production Team.

The Zoom F3 Professional Field Recorder is an excellent choice for those looking for high-quality sound in a compact package. With two XLR inputs and very low self-noise, it delivers clear and professional audio. The standout feature is its 32-bit float recording, which handles a wide range of sound levels, making post-production a breeze.The build quality is solid with a mix of metal and plastic, ensuring durability without adding extra weight. Power efficiency is another plus; it runs for over six hours on just two AA batteries. However, be aware that it doesn't have traditional gain controls and lacks 3.5mm inputs, which might be a downside for some. Overall, it's a fantastic tool for solo operators and those needing a portable yet powerful audio recorder.

One of the best-designed and most useful pieces of gear I own

Built like a tank, but compact. The interface and menus are intuitive. The screen is small but clear and adequate for the job. The sonic quality of the recording is excellent—transparent, very low noise floor. An affordable, high quality 32-bit float recorder.

Easy to use, great sound quality, versatile recording

My primary use for this recorder is for capturing dialog or ambient sounds while video recording. For my purposes it works fine. The 1/4 20 mounting options gives some flexibility for mounting with my rig or separately on a stand via magic arm or cold shoe, etc. Its a little tricky to mount on a boom pole just given the flat sides and back - it tends to want to slide around unless it is really locked down - but that can be challenging given the location of the controls and the xlr jacks. Not a big deal, just mentioning it in case someone is thinking about strapping it on to a boom pole.The menus are easy enough to use. The memory card is easy enough to get to. Battery life has been fine - doesn’t seem to be too power hungry. The sound quality is great! Love being able to just start recording without having to worry about the levels being too hot…that is super helpful. I’ve had no problems syncing up with audio recorded from the cameras just using a good clap (or three claps) at each take. Davinci Resolve syncs the clips perfectly…as expected. Having external 48v power has come in handy also…love that feature for when it is needed. In summary…Small size, nice features, great sound, ease of use, make this one a winner in my book.

Superb basic field recorder

I was an early adopter of this little gem, so I've had plenty of time to become familiar with it. The sound quality is impeccable and the 32-bit float feature avoids any need to set or monitor levels during a recording session - a huge benefit - and also matches the native format of some popular post-processing software. The unit is super-portable, seems rugged, and has what I would consider an ideal set of features for its intended use - nothing superfluous to take up extra space or drive up the price. Its main limitation is, of course, it offers only two inputs (no Decca trees allowed). Also need to be aware of its 10mA phantom max, both channels combined - many mics draw less than 5mA each, but some require as much as 10mA. I wondered initially whether the dual A/D converters would cause audible artifacts when transitioning between loud and soft, but so far have noticed no such problems. We need to be careful when picking it up, because the door over the memory card pops open when accidentally touched, ejecting the card - especially bad if the unit is on at the time. It can be mounted right on the mic stand using the handy little clamp at https://smile.amazon.com/ChromLives-Photography-Converter-Umbrellas-Shelves/dp/B07F72MS8Y/ref=sr_1_18?crid=C6N6J6278DHN&keywords=camera%2Bclamp%2Bmount&qid=1648163240&refinements=p_36%3A-1500&rnid=386442011&sprefix=camera%2Bclamp%2Bmount%2Caps%2C115&sr=8-18&th=1 which permits short mic cables. Highly recommended, if you don't need extra channels!

This thing is AMAZING!

I am fairly new to the audio world and just starting out in YouTube, Podcasting, and a few other things. I started in 2021 and have been building up my kit ever since, and this field recorder is INCREDIBLE. I started with an F2 lavalier mic and love it, but recognized that it was not for ambient sound and wanted to get something for that, too. I picked up the F3 and a Sennheiser MKE600 for ambient outdoor shots and dialing the camera in on fine focused sounds of specific areas. The F3 and MKE600 combo are amazing, the 32 bit float makes recording as simple as a push of a button and I am ready to grab whatever audio I need when doing run and gun, or doing more detailed planned shots. The F3 provides phantom power to the MKE600 which is why I bought it to begin with, the phantom power out even off of regular batteries is a game changer. Zoom really set the bar high with this one, I don't leave home without it!

Just incredible

This is an amazing piece of gear. First, is proper gain staging a smart skill to master? Of course. Learn it. But the peace of mind within a 32 bit float recorder is immeasurable. Loud and quiet sounds are recorded with almost no chance of clipping in typical uses. The versatility of the F3 is endless, the portability is wonderful and the quality of the recordings is equal if not better than other gear I use. This is perfect for recording VO in my booth, away from noisy computer fans. I no longer need to run 20 feet of cable across the room and potentially introduce interference in the chain. I just love this quality of life improvement and I can’t wait to expand my uses in the future.
