According to our audio recorder expert
The Zoom H5 is an audio recorder that allows you to make professional music recordings. Special about this audio recorder is that you can disconnect the microphone. So you can connect any Zoom microphone to the H5. With the X / Y microphone that comes as standard, you make both spatial and focused images. You do this by turning the microphones in different directions. The memory can be expanded to 32 GB. This means that you can take up to 550 hours of material. Are you done with recording music? Then you easily edit the fragments on your computer with the Steinberg Software licenses.

The sound is very good to my ears. I use the H5 like its predecessor for recording concerts and every time I am impressed with the level of detail that Zoom's devices can reproduce, provided the user can handle the device well: if you take care of a recording with a recording level of around -18db and input somewhere below '7', the sound is quiet and crystal clear.
Those who are familiar with the Zoom H4n, for example, will find their way immediately and I also think that a new user can quickly get to grips with it. The manual is detailed, comprehensive and clear. Thanks to the 'analog' adjustment wheel for the input levels, it is much easier to read that input just as quickly than fiddling with buttons on the side.
On a number of points it is clear that Zoom has taken the criticism of the fantastic H4n to heart: the SD card cover is better, the line in is in a handy place on the side and no longer at the bottom, the screen gives white / bluish light and not orange, the same batteries last longer and the start-up speed has improved considerably. All in all, I can't help but recommend the H5.
I can be brief about Coolblue: completely Coolblues, reliable and fast.

I was looking for a versatile recording device for indoor conversations, outdoor recordings and as a recording option for quick ideas with connection to my music equipment. I can connect these very easily via a jack. Meets my expectations perfectly. For outdoor shots I would recommend a deadkitten instead of the included mouse windstopper.
