HXR-MC1 Features 1080i Compact HD Camera. Splash-proof Specification Suited for Outdoor Use Even though it is equipped with a full HD shooting (1920x1080i), 10x optical zoom and built-in microphone, the camera is compact, measuring only 1 1/2 x 1 11/16 x 3 1/2 inch (37 x 42.5 x 86.5 mm). It can take 1080i HD or SD images and sound in places that no ordinary camcorder can access. It is possible to attach it to various devices such as helmets or arms by utilizing the screw hole at the bottom of the unit*1, and you can obtain HD or SD images from angles that you have never experienced before. And the camera is splash-proof, making it suitable for outdoor use as well. It can be used at the water's edge.*2 *1 Sony does not provide any special mounting hardware. *2 Only the camera unit conforms to IEC60529 IPX2. Under no circumstances must it be used in water. That will cause problems. Do not allow the control unit to get wet, as it has no splash-proof features.
