B&H updated their site today with more information on the the Zoom H6 audio recorder.  The Zoom H4 has been the go-to portable DSLR audio solution for the last three or four years but Samson’s Zoom H6 is now on the horizon and looks set to ship in August.  The unit is available to pre-order now if you really want to grab it as soon as it arrives.

Samson Tech stumbled onto something great with the ubiquitous Zoom H4N audio recorder.

Samson was in the right place at the right time with the right price, the H4N was and still is everywhere.
