| badie1's Full Review: Sony M-200MC Handheld Cassette Voice Recorder |
Don't waste your money on this dictaphone. At first glance, the options look worth the extra money. It has fast play back, voice operated recording, three microphone modes, a zoom microphone and a cue marker. Unfortunately, I have found that the extras on this dictaphone don't make up for the hefty price. I dictate every day and need a dictaphone that is easy to operate and comfortable to hold. This model, however, is neither. To rewind, you have to push up hard on the rewind/ff button with your thumb. It's awkward. The voice operated recording is very slow, so dictation is lost even when done at a moderate to slow pace. Plus, in dictation mode, the dictation isn't clear. I plan to return mine for a cheaper model without all the bells and whistles.
