1080i Compact HD Camera –
Splash-proof for Outdoor Use
Even though it is equipped with a full
HD shooting (1920 x 1080i) capability,
a 10x optical zoom and a built-in
microphone, the camera is compact,
measuring only 37 x 42.5 x 86.5 mm
(1 1/2 x 1 11/16 x 3 1/2 inch).
It can record 1080i HD or SD images
and sound in places that no ordinary
compact or shoulder-style HD
camcorder can access.
It is possible to attach it to various
devices, such as a helmet or vehicle,
by utilising the screw hole at the bottom
of the unit

from angles that have only been
captured with SD minicams before.
And the camera is splash-proof as well,
making it suitable for outdoor use. It
can be used at the water’s edge or in
the rain
