wow what a review
nice work
so is it safe to assume the overall pros (also assuming it sounds good) vs a m10 are...
48v
dig in
the con is battery life
ProsDigital In
Locking XLRs
Mic In or Line In on XLR
On-board 48V Phantom
Multiple battery options for hot-swap-ability
Small size (fits in pocket)
Metal construction
Wired or wireless remote
Included accessories and especially case included
Recessed back switches (to prevent accidental re-positioning)
ConsFile header isn't written on a file when all power is removed
AES/EBU digital standard isn't recognized
While this clearly doesn't run as long on the same amount of juice as the M10, I'm not sure that battery life should be called a con since they've designed to eliminate all issues with limitations on battery life. The only reason it's an issue is if you insist on buying alkalines and feeding it those, but I'm planning on using nothing but rechargeables.
