Sony is introducing a new full high-definition compact point-of-view (POV) camera and solid-state recorder combination, model HXR-MC1. Its unique design separates the camera head from the control unit/recorder, giving professional users more flexibility to capture shots in video applications where increased mobility is required beyond the use of traditional hand-held or shoulder-mount cameras, such as extreme sports, reality TV, documentaries, nature, wildlife and more.

This looks amazing, almost too good to be true! Why wait until February? I would really like to know how much one of these units costs?

The only thing that matters to me is how wide the lens is. 3.5mm like the XC999 lipstick cam? If it's not super wide, or they don't have an adapter, then don't bother...

According to my charts the horizontal angle of view of the zoom at it's widest is 45.4 degrees. With the .7 wide angle adapter attached that would go to 61.8 degrees.
