    3.0 out of 5 stars Does the job, but not the best, 27 Nov 2007
    By A. F. Richards "infra-red" (Bristol, UK) - See all my reviews
    (REAL NAME)   
    I'm a journalist and I use this dictaphone for interviews. The benefits of this one if that it's very small and light, very portable. The batteries last for ages and it can carry loads of different tracks.
    However - One really annoying feature is that when re-playing a recording, you can't rewind. This seems very strange and is VERY frustrating. You have to start the track all over again if you want to listen to a previous bit. Also, it's difficult to move the tracks onto a computer, you listen to them on the dictaphone.
    The mic is fine for quiet places where you are quite close to the other person. However, in noiser places (I carried out interviews backstage, with several people and in bars) it becomes very difficult to hear what's going on. I'd reccomend buying an extra mic to plug into this.
    All in all ., this is cute and it works and it's probably appropriate for some, but for the work I'm doing I'm upgrading to something a bit more powerful.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Sony ICD - B500 Digital voice recorder, 26 May 2009
    By M. Calvert (UK) - See all my reviews
    (REAL NAME)   
    It is easy to use and picks up voices without being too close. Rewind was a bit tricky to master, it kept going all the way back to the start, but once I read the instructions I soon got the hang of it!

    5.0 out of 5 stars An Excellent Machine, 5 May 2009
    By Mr. R. J. Taylor (uk) - See all my reviews
    (REAL NAME)   
    Sony Digital Dictation Long Recorder
    Excellent record and playback quality for a machine so small.( I recorded a Blackbird singing and it came within 2 feet to investigate the playback!).Controls are a little difficult to learn,because it can do so much,but basic functions are easily mastered.Fantastic value,but a wrist strap would be a useful inclusion.
