Quick test of Sony FX30 Built-in Microphones and Tascam DR-44WL Four-Track Recorder with Stereo Mics https://youtu.be/2y86Z-3w0vA

- Sony Cinema Line FX30 (ILME-FX30) - Firmware Version 2.0
- Tascam DR-44WL - Firmware 2.14.0132

Built-in stereo microphones are ideal for surround sound. In most cases, you can no longer put simple cannon mics to record your surroundings. The FX30 has a lot of good features :)

Thanks for this. I've just caught up on viewing it.

It did sound to me though as if the pre-amps in the Tascam are better than the FX30. I preferred its audio output.

I've been wondering about the FX30's built in microphones as I've yet to use them. So far I've been using external shotgun microphones. Previous experience had made me dubious about the quality of camera in-built microphones.

Tascam preamps are really better. The FX30 has strong post-processing. But for many tasks, when you just need interference the FX30 mics can be used.

I use a Zoom H5 for much the same reason. Its preamps do result in excellent audio recordings.

Zoom H5 is a very good tool!
