Casio F-91W-1 Digital Field Watch

Description

Matching your field log to a recording

Compare the watch with the recorder clock at the start of a session. Write down the offset if the clocks differ. Start the stopwatch at the beginning of a take and note elapsed times for a door closing, footsteps, or a spoken cue.

What to check before buying

The stopwatch measures to 1/100 second within a 59-minute, 59.99-second range. It does not write timestamps into an audio file. Check the hourly signal and alarm before recording in a quiet room.

For field technique, read the HauntGears beginner equipment checklist. See the manufacturer’s specifications and instructions.
