Sony Webbie MHS-CM1 HD Camcorder Description

From the Manufacturer

Say hello to the Webbie HD camera. When fun happens, Webbie is there. The pocket-sized Webbie HD camera is your perfect companion, ready to record antics at a moment’s notice. Not only does it record HD MP4 video that plays nicely with sites like YouTube, it also snaps off sharp, 5-megapixel still shots with ease.

Only about 1.7 inches wide and 2.4 inches tall, this is one ridiculously small camera. Inside, you’ll find an integrated 5 MP CMOS sensor that lets the Webbie capture razor-sharp stills in addition to great-looking HD MP4 video. The HD MP4 format is highly versatile, making your media files small enough to easily transfer them to your PC or Mac via USB.

Cram up to 8.5 hours of HD video footage or thousands of photos (based on 16GB media) on ultra-small Memory Stick PRO Duo media (sold separately). What’s more, Memory Stick slots are featured on many Sony VAIO notebooks, and most compatible card readers. Transferring files couldn’t be easier.

Meet the brightest new movie stars: You and your friends. Take the Webbie along on your next road trip or just start filming yourself. Like to post videos to your blog? The 2.5-inch screen swivels 270 degrees, making “self-shooting” a cinch.
