Sony HXR-MC88

The Sony HXR-MC88 camcorder is designed for education, authorities, and individuals who require a lightweight HD camera solution. The HXR-MC88 features a 14.2 Megapixel 1-inch Exmor RS CMOS chip with a BIONZ X image processor capable of operating with as little as 1.7 lux illumination in lux mode for sharp photos. The camera records in Full HD 1080p60 at 28 MB/s in the widely supported AVCHD format.

The Fast Hybrid autofocus system supports phase detection, face detection, and lock functions to quickly capture sharp, in-focus images. The fixed 29 mm ZEISS Vario-Sonnar T wide-angle zoom lens includes a 12x optical zoom and an up to 48x digital zoom. In addition, you can control the aperture, shutter speed, and ISO automatically. Manual operation is also possible if you want a little more creativity. There is also a built-in neutral density filter wheel that reduces light by 2, 4, and 6 stops. This is useful to prevent overexposure when using the video camera in bright sunlight.

The Sony HXR-MC88 is equipped with a Sony Multi-Interface (MI) shoe mount that can be used to attach accessories such as lights and microphones. The camera has an XLR handle that connects to the MI shoe mount and offers two 3-pin XLR audio input

ts with 48V phantom power.

For live monitoring, it features a 3.5-inch OLED LCD touchscreen and a 0.39-inch viewfinder, both of which deliver clear and accurate images. There is an HDMI type A and a multi/micro USB output. Video can be recorded in two SDHC / SDXC card slots in a relay or simultaneous modes; a Sony Memory Stick PRO-HG or PRO Duo (Mark 2) can be used in the first slot.
