I wonder which of the Olympus recorders is easiest to hold in the hand and has the least amount of handling noise and wind noise. I have a DM5 20 and cannot get anywhere near the kind of recordings Neil gets with his. I get so much handling noise when I'm holding it. And, so much wind noise. Even the slightest breeze makes a loud noise. the smallest twitch of my hand gets picked up by the internal microphones. I really would like a handheld recorder that records as well as my DM5 20 but has better handling and wind noise isolation.

I wouldn't mind the recording button being on the front. Sometimes I don't like pushing the buttons on the side of the recorder when it's in the palm of my hand. It be nice to have my thumb land on the record button. Instead of having to stretch a finger or thumb up on the side of the machine.

I find I do a lot of recording taking voice notes and just yakking away since I got the dm520 recorder. But, the handling and wind noise are probably gonna make it very difficult to do speech to text transcription with Dragon NaturallySpeaking. I haven't gotten around to trying DNS out yet on my recordings. I hope it works okay. Still getting my computer sorted out before I can do this.
In the meantime, looking for a better recorder,

Bob
