The Q8n-4K Ultra high-definition handy video recorder. Designed for musicians, podcasters, journalists and filmmakers from Zoom lets you capture up to four tracks of pristine 24-bit/96kHz audio along with stunning 4K Ultra HD video. With an intuitive 5" touchscreen interface, dual built-in stereo microphones and compatibility with Zoom mic capsules, the Q8n-4K gives you a portable recording studio that fits in the palm of your hand.

Record Four Tracks of 24-bit/96kHz Audio

The Q8n-4K features two balanced XLR inputs and dual built-in stereo condenser microphones, allowing you to capture up to four separate audio tracks simultaneously. With support for high-resolution 24-bit/96kHz recording, your audio will be crisp, clean and full of detail. The dual microphones can record in an X/Y pattern or in a wide 120-degree stereo image, giving you flexibility in how you capture the sound around you.

Stunning 4K Ultra HD Video

In addition to pristine audio, the Q8n-4K lets you capture stunning 4K Ultra HD video at 30 fps or Full HD video at up to 60 fps. A 5" touchscreen makes it easy to frame your shot and monitor your recording. The Q8n-4K also supports live streaming via USB, allowing you to share your video in real time with high-quality audio.

Intuitive Interface and Rugged Design

Despite its impressive specs, the Q8n-4K is designed to be easy to use. An intuitive touchscreen interface lets you control all major functions with just a tap or swipe. The Q8n-4K also has a rugged metal chassis and rubberized sides to withstand the rigors of field recording. Powered by 4 AA batteries, the Q8n-4K gives you up to three hours of 4K recording and five hours of Full HD recording per charge.

Add Zoom Mic Capsules for Added Flexibility

For added flexibility, the Q8n-4K is compatible with Zoom's lineup of mic capsules, including the SGH-6 shotgun mic capsule and the XYH-5 X/Y mic capsule. With optional capsules, you can tailor the Q8n-4K to suit different recording applications.

    I am an electronic music producer and DJ! I bought this so I could record direct audio out of my Pioneer 900NXS2 mixer in order to create content videos playing out my upcoming IDs as well as recording my live sets start to finish for every show.

  • Worthless for on-the-go live streaming.

    I bought this specifically to live stream concerts. It is particularly ill suited for this task. It must be tethered to a computer with streaming software like OBS. The fixed camera focal points dramatically limited shooting options. I was far better served by an external phone mic.

    Can this be used as an audio interface and go into a daw? Or do you have to save the video first then pull the audio in. Thanks.

    I can't see why not. You could use the headphone output. All the DAW wants is an input.
