Sony Walkman MZ-R700 Personal MiniDisc Player

I bought this item because I had used one at work and kept it over long as others wanted to use it. So I decided I needed my own. I have only used it for playback as yet as it has no microphone, (the one at work is very expensive). I need it for capturing sounds while out and about - for my animated film. Once I get a decent microphone I'll be using it contstantly.
This item was very good value for money, and came with a free carry case - which I much appreciated as this will help limit damage to the machine while clunking about in my bag - as well as a free disc - also appreciated as now I know what to buy for other discs. (i.e what they look like and what's written on them) It was disappointing to realise that the "European digital cable" meant that the recharger needed an adapter to use in the UK, but I do have one so that's okay.
The ability to edit a track after recording it, while the disc is still in the machine is invaluable, so if I record woodland birdsong - I can label that track as such before moving on to another recording - makes finding the track you want so much easier when you have a full disc.

I would recomend this item as definitely fit for the purpose, and you can also listen to music if that's all you want it for, but with a good microphone it becomes a very good film maker's/media tool.
