THE SONY ACTION CAM HDR-AS15, A REAL MINI CAMERA ON BOARD

Equipped with a very wide-angle Carl Zeiss lens, the Sony HDR-AS15 Action Cam films a scene that sweeps 170 ° with an image quality that promises to be excellent, being equipped with a backlit CMOS sensor, the famous Exmor R. On the menu, recording videos in Full HD up to 30p (MPEG4-AVC / H.264) and a slow motion 4x and 2x mode. The storage is done on a microSD card or a Memory Stick Micro, the M2 card. This little adventure-ready digital camcorder can be attached to different media via a range of accessories and adhesive mounts including an optional elastic band: on the front of a surfboard, on a ski helmet, on a MTB handlebars, etc…. and to explore the seabed in video, the Action Cam will be delivered with a waterproof case to 60m which can also be used to protect the camera from rain, snow, sand or dust. We are in the middle of the GoPro concept, plus BSI CMOS sensor. It can also shoot in 11,9 megapixels in 16: 9. The image is stabilized by a simple digital device.
