I have been looking at the new Zoom Q3 to use for recording band rehearsals and gigs. I have used a friend's Tascam audio recorder a few times in the past with good result. I like the new Zoom Q3 as it includes a video recorder as well.
Does anyone here have one and what has been your impression so far of quality and results?

I've read a lot of reviews and the consensus seems to be that the audio is nice but the video sucks. Of course, if you're not that concerned about the video quality it might be a good buy.

I think I read it also has a Youtube app built in so you can upload your vids while you driving home in the car from the gig. You'll be famous before you even onload the car!

From the videos I have seen the Audio/Video quality looked great!

Thanks to everyone for the feedback. I think for what it does it is a very useful tool for a very fair price of around $229.00 US. I'm ordering one today and will post my experiences with it as soon as I get it.
