Great recorder BUT no external mic jack! - T. Sheppard - Jeffersonville, IN USA
I was very impressed with this product until I needed an external mic jack. It does not have one. Considering the price paid, it should. I ended up having to spend an additional to get another machine that has one! I'll be selling my Sony, which is a shame as the clarity and functioning of this machine are superb!
