Sony HDR-AS15 Action Video Camera (Black) (Discontinued by Manufacturer)

hi i'm josh golden with cnet and this is a look at sony's first crack at making a tiny pov camera the appropriately named action cam as you can see it's a pretty small device and it's very lightweight and pretty slippery unfortunately but on back you have a door with a big record button and that slides open to reveal the removable battery and memory card slot and then on the bottom you have various Jack's including one for an external mic and one that lets you pop the camera into a cradle with a 2.7 inch screen so you can shoot with it like a regular camcorder however because of the curved body there's no way to stand the camera up on its own and you'll need to put it into its waterproof case to use it with a tripod or one of the two adhesive mounts that come with the camera the front of the case is removable perhaps a little too easily removable and can be replaced with a flat lens doo
