Sony's ultra-compact MHS-PM1 Webbie HD features a fun, vertical design and a unique swiveling lens for camcorder fans with a go-anywhere, film-anything attitude. This web-friendly cam records high-quality MPEG-4 videos and 5-megapixel still images, and stores them on optional Memory Stick® PRO Duo cards. MPEG-4 is a very popular and flexible video format that compresses your movies for easy posting on most video-sharing sites, like YouTube.
Easy recording features Separate "Movie" and "Still" buttons let you easily select what you want to record, or you can switch to the dual capture mode to take photos while you're recording. You can power on the MHS-PM1 simply by swiveling the lens, which rotates 270° for easy filming at odd angles, such as recording yourself for a video blog. And this cam is so light and small just over 4 oz. and 4 inches long you can slip it into a pocket or a purse and take it with you wherever you go.
