Zoom Q2N 4K

Description

Essential Information About the Zoom Q2n-4K 4K Camera for Musicians

  • 4K Ultra HD Video with HDR for sharp and consistent images under spotlights, backlighting, and LEDs.
  • X/Y Stereo Microphone supporting up to 120 dB SPL, for natural sound in rehearsals and on stage.
  • USB Webcam/Streaming ready for OBS, online classes, and live streaming on social networks.
  • Versatile Framing with 5 FOVs and a 150-degree wide-angle lens to switch from solo to group shots.

From the Q2n to the Q2n-4K: 4K Serving Musicians

Successor to the Q2n, the Zoom Q2n-4K takes a leap forward with 4K resolution, extended dynamic range HDR, and bitrates up to 76 Mbps, offering more detail and latitude in post-production. It adds a Micro-HDMI output, 5 viewing angles, and 12 "Scene" presets to instantly adapt to concert lighting. Compact and robust, it establishes itself as the all-in-one reference of the Q series for music video.

Who It's For and What It's For

Solo musicians, bands, teachers, and content creators will find in the Q2n-4K a simple solution to document performances, produce demos, instrumental vlogs, and online courses. As a standalone recorder on microSD, a USB webcam, or USB microphone, it integrates seamlessly into a home studio setup as well as a live stage environment.

Key Features for Stage, Studio, and Streaming

4K HDR Image Tailored for Concert Lighting

The 150-degree F2.8/15.2 mm lens captures a wide scene while HDR balances highlights and shadows. The 12 "Scene" presets-from "Jazz Club" to "Concert Lighting" or "Outdoor"-speed up your settings according to the ambiance, delivering clean results right from the capture.

Precise and Powerful X/Y Audio

The X/Y stereo capsules provide a realistic sound image, handling up to 120 dB SPL without distortion. Low-cut filter, automatic gain, and headphone/line output secure your levels and monitoring, whether filming in a rehearsal room or on a large stage.

Ready for Live and Content Creation

Connected via USB, the Q2n-4K becomes a webcam and USB microphone for Mac/PC and iPad, compatible with OBS, Skype, and major platforms. You can also route audio to an iOS device for continuous streaming or record in MOV format on microSD (up to 256 GB) for an efficient mobile workflow.

Compact and Reliable Ergonomics

A color LCD screen facilitates framing, and the 5 FOVs cover from tight shots to wide angles. Power by two AA batteries (included) ensures autonomy on the go, while the Micro-HDMI output enables external monitoring or capture via a capture card.

I use it to record mixes on the master output (rca) on a mixing console and on the external input (in) mini jack on the Zoom, the Zoom headphone jack to the speakers and it's good. Sound quality: current standards Image quality: correct but below smartphones or other recent video devices... The Zoom Q2N is simple to use and records well with its own microphone as well as with an audio input. It is small, compact and gives the impression of being rather good quality.

great for recording music with video. Easy to use. The video quality could be better but nothing comes close in this price range.

I've been using it for two days for guitar/vocals, for me it's the ideal tool: I turn it on, press the record button, and I play!!! And afterwards, I can have my video on my computer or on my TV, without endless computer manipulation. My sound card and studio software are now unemployed!!! The audio quality is good, the video quality not so bad, more than enough for my use as an amateur. Essential accessory pack and a bit too expensive... I believe there is no competing product in this niche...

The video quality doesn't really match 4K, but it is still decent.
