ruthyruth Posted July 5, 2006 Report Share Posted July 5, 2006 Other than about a hundred extra bucks MSRP, I'm not sure what the difference between these two devices are. They are both HI-MD recorders that appear to have legacy backward compatibility with MAC / PC USB up/download support. My observations are from the Sony spec sheets on these devices. Anybody that can clue me into what benefits there might be to buying the more expensive MZ-M200 over the MZ-RH1, I'd appreciate your input. Thank You! -Ruth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin42 Posted July 5, 2006 Report Share Posted July 5, 2006 (edited) The M200 is Sony's "professional" model. As far as I know, the only difference in the M200 comes with a bundled mic (and maybe the bundled Mac software will actually be fully functional; the RH1 got out the door before the Mac software was ready).I don't know the quality of the mic.The RH1's manual also has MZ-M200 listed on it, so they are so similar they share a manual and accessories. They are basically the same model with a different model #.Unless you need a Sony mic, I don't think there's any reason to wait for an M200. Back about a month ago there was speculation the US RH1 unit would be silver and the M200 black (and people wanted black) but now that the RH1 is confirmed to be black that's not an issue. (although I don't think anyone's SEEN a US M200 so there's no confirmation as to colour) Edited July 5, 2006 by Justin42 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
