Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Is information available whether this cover fits Canon DSLRs with battery grips?

A: According to our findings, this product will fit Canon DSLR's with a battery grip attached.

Q: 2. Can the F3 record a line level out from a soundboard or mixer, without needing a 20db pad or attenuation? And without clipping?

A: Yes, the Zoom F3 2-Input / 2-Track Portable Field Recorder's inputs can be set to line level with no need for an attenuator cable.

Q: 3. Any way to PAUSE while recording?

A: Yes, the Zoom F3 2-Input / 2-Track Portable Field Recorder can be paused while recording.

Q: 4. Will this work with a smaller mirrorless camera such as an Olympus OMD EM1 or is it too large?

A: From our experiences and reported customer reviews, it works best on medium/larger DSLRs or mirrorless cameras. The main factor for comfort and utility would be the overall size of the lens. Smaller ones on a mirrorless system might make the user feel like the camera is engulfed in the DSLR Parka.

Q: 5. Do they make this for the sony a7iii series camera's or is this the only one available. I was thinking of using it for my winter astro shoots to eliminate my lens fogging up. The other options seem to be very thin but this one looks to be padded which would help insulate lens and body ?

A: I have used this at 7F temperature on a windy day for 2 hours and my hands were kept warm as well as the camera. It did get fogged up though so I had to unzip it a few times to clear up.

Q: 6. Important question.. For how long can the unit operate continuously before it overheats?

A: B&H does not perform bench tests on products. According to manufacturer tests, the product has undergone testing that saw it running for over a week in standard operating conditions and no issues have been reported, including overheating.

Q: 7. How do I turn off phantom power?

A: Instructions for turning the Zoom F3's phantom power on or off can be found on page 33 of the manual here: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/lit_files/817196.pdf

Q: 8. does it include the light panel and power unit?

A: No. This is frame only.

Q: 9. Can I use it on the Ivation Pro Steady DSLR Rig System with Shoulder Mount? Or does it work only on rigs with 15mm Rod Systems?

A: This follow focus lists for use with 15mm rods. It is possible to add a 15mm rod baseplate between the Ivation Pro Steady DSLR Rig System and camera. Product example is CAMVATE Baseplate with 7.9" 15mm Rods for Select Canon/Sony Cameras (Red Wingnut) BH #CAC1519 • MFR #C1519. https://bhpho.to/2EUl4mO

Q: 10. Is this padded well enough to protect the camera from anything hitting it? Or is this strictly to protect from rain and such?

A: The Ruggard DSLR Parka Cold and Rain Protector for Cameras and Camcorders (Black), B&H # RUPACLB, is designed to protect your camera from rain, snow, dust, and mud, and would protect your hands and your gear from wind and cold. It is not designed to protect your camera from drops, bumps, and/or abrasions. While the nature of the protector would offer some benefit from an occasional light bump or impact, that is not the intention of usage for this product.

[8 Minutes] I have been using the Alesis drum products for about 15 years now and am quite impressed with the SR-18. The sounds and flexibility of the unit are phenomenal and the ease of operation should be emulated by other manufacturer's units. I use it for both live and studio applications and it has performed flawlessly in both environments. For the money, this is the best unit on the market in my opinion. 5

[110 VAC, 60 Hz] As a long-time owner of the SR-16, I was looking forward to the updated SR-18. I was not disappointed. It sounds way better and the back-lit display is awesome and worth the price alone. My experience with B&H was great and I would recommend them. 5

[15.04 lb] Great drums sounds, lots of adjustments and fine tuning options. Huge display that is easy to see and read for most settings. The looping recording is the best part, you just keep adding additional drums until you have the sound you want. 5

Robert	08/09/2024
[8 Minutes] I have nothing really to compare it to, especially because the Jmaz units only use the JMaz powder, but it works. It does what its suppose to do and people love it. 5

[Black] I own an old HR-16 which still work after 15 year, my cousin still. has an SR-16 still works after 10 years The SR-18 is a step above both!!!! love it!!!!! 5

[15.04 lb] Great drum machine-good looking and great professional sound. Great in you Home studio, practice and at the gigs! 5

[15.04 lb] I don't think you will find a better creative tool for the money. Easy to use and intuitive. The games begin right out of the box. 5

GWD	01/08/2024
[Black] I use this in my home studio for recording. Has a lot of bells and whistles if you need them. Mostly, I just use it to manually tap out the drums and percussion while recording but it is certainly capable of much, much more. I love the variety of sampled drum kits and the recorded sound is indeed authentic. I doubt most people would guess it's not performed by a real drummer. 5

Luis	08/07/2024
[110 VAC, 60 Hz] I have rarely seen an instrument like this. you can create whatever you want with this drum machine. excellent product. easy to use and really good sound. I use it along with a synth and sound is perfect. the amount of possibilities you have is almost endless impossible to find everything inside this little box fantastic. I recommend it especially to create music. 5

[8 Minutes] I use an SR18 as the basis for my drum kit when I record. As most folks know, it is capable of being a really great program-the-drums-in-advance drummer, but I've found that when I record, I work better in real time. What I mean is that I could create drum patterns and write them into the SR18 memory, using them as building blocks to create an internal song that would record and play back with computer-accurate perfection for live performances, but for recording, it doesn't feel as dynamic as simply playing the pads as I'm recording. As with most human beings, I don't do a perfect job, and those imperfections add a subtlety to the song that keeps it interesting. The SR18 -- along with separate tracks for the bass/snare, ride cymbal, crash cymbal, toms, and high hat -- lets me do that perfectly. At mixdown, I can adjust each component in the kit to complement the other sounds in the mix, and arrive at a magnificently realistic drum part. Love this thing! 5
