I use it for a year and I am very satisfied. The firmware updates have resolved some minor problems.
The problem of autonomy is set in 2 ways: either by using NiMH batteries of 2700 mAh or 2800, or by using a portable power supply (12 V model) and a cable with the specific connector EIAJ 4.The Power FOSTEX home is sold very expensive (85 euros). You can find supplies to 16.90 euros (re volt model PE 4121 -87) that contain the taking EIAJ 4.
This is an excellent machine, very reliable, used by many professional radio and film.
Compared to his little sister FR2-LE has it and more digital I / O, the ability to record in mono in a single file, the possibility of a map Time Code.
Small hard drives are not recommended, the price of CFC 4 GB cards became available.
I stand by that choice and investment.
