Digital camera reviews of Olympus VN2100PC Digital Voice Recorder

Digital camera Review: A good tool for lecture recording.
Summary: 4 Stars

I purchased this for recording lectures in seminary, and thus far it works quite well. The sound is muddy for sure, but understandable.

I record most lectures on the high mic setting, and 'SP.' The other, higher recording settings are easier to hear/understand but aren't worth the extra storage space.

Even though the player holds 64 mb, it takes up more space on your PC after converted. I would like to try the recorder with a mic attachment to see the quality increase.

The batteries are said to last about 25 hours, and I can't say either way how long mine lasted. If it was shorter it didn't seem like it.

The functions are intuitive (to me) and I figured out most all of the functions in about 15 minutes.

This is the first digital recorder I've purchased or used, but I like it and would recommend it to anyone wishing to record lectures or conversations or whatever. I think you would need an external mic if you wanted to record music. I did so on the highest setting and it was pretty muddled. Not really worth listening to again.
