Continuation of: http://taperssection.com/index.php?topic=130924.375

Im using m10 with dpa 4061s and bbox,(mic in pip off)audio is to be used for bluray concert video,bluray spec allows 16bit 48k or 24bit 48k.with this deck will i notice better quality with 24bit?should i record 24bit 96k?what is the point of diminishing returns?

Personally, I would definitely opt for the 24 bit.  48 vs. 96 kHz doesn't make a difference that I can hear, but some people have strong preferences one way or the other...

the m10 still kicks ass! welcome to part three.

Just picked on up. Love the 'feel' of the unit. The record button seems a little different, perhaps stiffer, than the other transport buttons, but it still functions.

i am using copper top batteries...anyone have issues with rechargeables?

[gmm6797]

I use rechargeables with no issues for close to 7 hours of 24/96 record time... but make sure to change the battery settings when you switch so the meter reads correctly on the screen

I just noticed that B&H Photo Video is selling the Sony PCM-M10 this morning for $199.  You have to add the item to the shopping cart to see the low price.

Yesterday, B&H's price was $251.  So the $199 price may not last long.

I love B&H!!!

I have purchased a Sony PCM-M10 from them 12 days ago for $251.00.
I have just called them and told them that the price dropped to $199.00 and they said that they will refund the difference to my credit card.
It is such a sweet deal right now, $199.00 for a great recorder and you also get a nice case through rebate ($30 value).

Thank you very much Flinstone for letting me know. You've saved me $50

Oh man! and I thought I got the best deal paying only $235 after Bing Instant Cashback from a seller on eBay for my Sony PCM-M10 !  Wow that is a nice price for $199.  It definitely would make this one of the best buys out there now.

[ironbut]

Wow, thanks you guys!
Just ordered a red one!

Free shipping too. (man, as they say, I am my father now,.. he's a cheap skate too)

[jbell]

Great price!  I am tempted to pick one up.   

[rastasean]

on the question of rechargeables, I still have the ORIGINAL batteries that I got with the unit a few months ago back in march/april and all bars still show full. Occasionally it will slip down one tick but hasn't stayed down constantly.

[kfrinkle]

Damn, if I had an extra 200 bucks, I would buy a backup.  I LOOOOVE that little recorder, man what a great upgrade after dealing with the MicroTrack 24/96...

[Fatah Ruark (aka MIKE B)]

Well...I was holding off getting the M10, but $200 was too hard to pass up. Good thing is that completes my new stealth rig. (Nevaton MCE400 > Tinybox > M10).

The internal 4GB should be enough for me for most situations, but I may be doing a festie in August and 4GB is going to be a close call for what I want to cover.

Any suggestions on a 8GB micro SD card?

Anyone use this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820208453&cm_re=micro_sd-_-20-208-453-_-Product

[Ziggz]

Seeing as my backup iRiver is starting to do random weird things, I couldn't resist the price of this. Grab 'em while you can!

[sparkey]

The only thing I don't like about this recorder is the lack of a digital input.  Is there anything comparable that has a digital in?
