There are so many different ways to use a recorder like this. My application is probably a bit different than most. from Amazon.com I recently purchased the Marantz PMD620 as a podcasting recorder as well as an accompany audio source for my camcorder recording. There are a fair number of reviews on portable recorders out there, each with significant bias towards one brand or another, and I researched all of these before deciding on the Marantz. from Amazon.com I've been using this recorder for 5 months now. I'll start with the good news. from Amazon.com There is so much good about the 620 that it's fatal flaws are heartbreaking.

The main reason I decided to purchase the Marantz PMD-620 was primarily because reviews on the internet claimed it was built well and rugged. from Amazon.com Recently I bought the PMD620 and it seems to me very easy to use and also very light, maybe too light because I had problems with the weight of the microphone and audiophone cables that is much more that the same recorder.

Unfortunately, the 620 didn't live up to my expectations which is when I ran across the Olympus LS-10 stocked here at amazon. from Amazon.com I read a lot of good reviews on the Marantz PMD-620 and decided to buy it for my fieldwork research to record both voice interviews and musical performances.
