With its professional-quality sound, high-definition video, and seamless web compatibility, our Music Video Recorder is designed specifically for musicians to share their talent.
The HDR-MV1 is designed so its mics project out, instead of being embedded in the device. And with the two microphones crossed, they capture a wide range of sound from left, center, and right, resulting in a deep, realistic stereo.
Always play at full throttle; loud volumes are smoothed out to prevent clipping and distortion.
Wide frequency response is “flat” from bass to treble, to record everything from drums to violins.
Record in uncompressed Linear PCM or the AAC format at 48kHz /128kbps—ideal for Internet use.
The HDR-MV1 was designed for serious artists: key features include lossless Linear PCM or web-friendly AAC audio recording, broadcast-quality wide-angle video, and built-in NFC sharing for effortless uploads.
Even in the dimmest settings, your video will look clear and crisp. With the ZEISS lens, Sony’s Exmor R CMOS sensor, and the fast BIONZ processor, you get full HD video with superb details and rich color.
Sony’s Exmor R CMOS sensor is extremely sensitive, capturing facial expressions and fast movements, even in dark environments like studios or stages.
The premium-quality ZEISS lens lets you shoot big scenes in small places, even when there’s no room to step back.
Fast, high-fidelity BIONZ image processor captures every nuance of the scene to deliver top-quality results under the most challenging conditions.
Install the free Sony PlayMemories Mobile app and connect to smartphones or tablets via Wi-Fi. The HDR-MV1 is also equipped with NFC One-touch, for device pairing with just a tap. Share videos with friends and social media sites quickly and easily.
Fame, and even fortune are a tap away. NFC, or Near Field Communication, lets you transfer videos with a tap from the HDR-MV1 to any compatible device.
Wi-Fi capability means you’ll be posting your performance on your favorite social media site before the club has even closed for the night.
Combining Sony’s expertise in audio and imaging technology, the HDR-MV1’s innovative design delivers exactly what enthusiast to semi-professional musicians are looking for to help them develop their talent—and their audience.
