Questions about this item

How much recording time does the 16GB internal storage give me at the headline 96kHz/24-bit quality?

At 96kHz/24-bit PCM the 16GB memory holds roughly 3.5 hours; lower bit-rate formats extend that significantly.

What does the built-in Bluetooth connection actually let me do?

Bluetooth lets you monitor levels and start or stop recording from up to 32 feet away using a paired smartphone app.

Can I mount this recorder directly on a camera hot shoe?

Not directly — the optional SM2 shock mount attaches to the hot shoe and holds the recorder securely.
