There are several handheld recorders that you can buy. I’d advice something like the Tascam dr-05x or Zoom h2n (both under 200 euros). But for wind protection you’ll need a wind jammer. Not a standard wind foam thing, like the ones that come with the machine, but a proper one. Rycote is a good brand for this, they have one for most recorders. So for instance if you buy a dr-05x, you can buy a dr-05x compatible wind jammer from Rycote. I’d advice not to try and save money on this.
I agree. Also, moderation by non-anonymous users. The best places on the internet have mods that are users themselves. That way, users aren’t just encouraged to follow rules, but generally act like they want to be there.
