The World’s Smallest Sports HD Camera is in Australia: Introducing Replay XD1080

Full HD is now Smaller, Lighter and Smarter. Introducing the all-new, radically different Replay XD1080. Starting with a clean sheet of paper, the video experts at Replay XD managed to combine stunning high definition video and a wide range of professional camera features into the smallest package on the market… period. Featuring a water-resistant, hard anodized, rugged aluminum housing for extreme adventures, the Replay XD1080 is the smallest and lightest full HD action camera on the market, and is packed with pro-level audio, live uncompressed HDMI video out in full HD, video playback, external audio line-in, time-lapse photography, and highly-configurable image and camera settings. All in a sleek, rugged, aluminum tube smaller than anything on the market. The game just changed.

At only 3 ounces, 28mm x 93mm, Replay XD 1080 is the lightest and smallest 1080P camera on the market. Whether shooting on a movie set, from the hood of a racecar, flying high on a Motocross bike, Mountain Bike, Snowboard, or carving through a wave, the Replay XD1080 can capture jaw-dropping video where others simply cannot. The new model features color rich 1080p or 960p HD video at 30 frames per second or 720p HD at 30/60 frames per second for high-speed action. The system packs a crystal clear non-fisheye, non-distorted 135 degree field of view lens and 5-megapixel image sensor. It will allow the addition of widely available lenses, filters & polarizers. Time-lapse photography can be shot in 3, 5, 15 & 30 second increments in full 5MP, 2592 x 1944 printable stills.

Replay XD1080 provides a live HDMI out that can not only allow for connection to any HDMI monitor for precise framing of your shot, but it can also stream live uncompressed video in whatever mode you select 1080p, 960p or 720p as the action happens. You can also set it for PAL or NTSC recording. Perfect for broadcast transmission for live television or on-site production. The Replay XD can also do just that… Replay direct to any HDMI compatible TV or device through an incredibly intuitive playback interface.

In addition to the camera’s best-in-class onboard mic, the Replay XD1080 will soon have a addon secondary audio input that allows users to feed audio from their own source such as race radios, LAV mics iPods and more. Filmmakers can mic their subjects for crystal clear audio in every scenario.

The Setting of modes is so simple through the rear multi color LED panel. Pick your setting once and replace the cap, it’s that easy. The Power and Record buttons are on the top and require one simple touch. Each command provides a specific vibration feedback to let you know it’s starting or stopping. The Replay XD1080 records up to 120 minutes of video on a single charge of the internal Li-Ion battery. It comes with a 4GB micro SD card and can support up to a 32GB micro SD. The system also remembers the last setting and holds it, even if you run the battery down. Also, simple “Quick-Clip” function allows on the fly editing in the field.

Unlike other, bulky action sports cameras, the Replay XD line can be mounted virtually anywhere, due to its compact size and shape. The Replay XD1080 comes with an exclusive HeimLock swivel/tilt mount, and LowBoy flat mount. It comes with 2 convex and 2 flat SnapTrays with 3M VHB adhesive to mount almost anywhere.

In addition to the two mounts, the camera also comes with a kit that includes a soft silk protective pouch, a black ballistic carrying case, 4GB micro SDHC card which holds up to 2 hours of video, USB charge / data cable, Micro USB card reader & micro SD to SD card adaptor for easy file transferring, HDMI view and playback cable, AC power adapter, Car power Adapter, safety leash.

Replay XD’s years of motorsports and specialty manufacturing experience also inspired the most complete line of optional Pro Mounts, billet aluminum tubular chassis mounts, helmet mounts, single and multi-camera suction cup mounts, skateboard mounts, magnet & gun mounts. Replay XD is constantly engineering ways to make mounting and using Replay XD cameras even more effortless.

“We wanted to design a camera that can go places other cameras can’t,” says Replay XD President, John Spar, ” Whether you’re bombing down the mountain, or setting a fast lap, your Replay XD1080 will always get a solid shot in perfect High Def clarity. The new Replay XD1080 offers even more freedom to capture the action exactly how it happens.”

Replay XD was designed by a group of racing professionals with over 50 years of experience in the high performance racing industry. The development team saw the need for ultra-lightweight cameras that could capture never before seen video footage from the most extreme racing and action environments on earth. The Replay XD1080 has been put through the most grueling conditions possible and has come out unscathed with crystal clear footage. Replay XD’s goal is to bring you the most technologically advanced recording systems available today.

In a recent review of 16 cameras in Issue 10 of Tarmac Magazine ,the RadCam HDPro was awarded “Best in Class.”  Below is the text from the review.

Radcam HDPro Review

Radcam HD Pro

The Radcam offers almost everything a tarmac rally driver wants: 1080p resolution, a colour screen, infra-red remote, and a lens angle between 120-140 degrees selected with a button. There’s also an internal microphone with option for external audio, through a standard 3.5mm jack — there’s even a lapel microphone included, along with a 4gb memory card.

Where it shines is power source, supplied with two rechargeable lithium-ion batteries, and a 12v power adaptor which keeps the batteries topped up: this configuration ensures files will be written, even if power is cut, for example in a crash.

Both the recorder and the lens have tripod mounts, and the long cable is 2m, where most are 1.5m. All within a recorder unit that weighs 150grams, lighter than some one-piece units. Includes a case,

AC charger and a selection of cables making it one of the most comprehensive cameras available.

Price: $599

Pros: Size, price, features

Cons: Camera not easily detachable from recorder

Verdict: Everything a tarmac racer would want at a competitive price

The Australian Rally Championship (ARC) has made a new choice for its official on board camera systems for the 2011 season.

After evaluating several options, the RadCam HDPro is their camera of choice.  All drivers competing in the 2011 season will be required to have a RadCam ARC Kit installed in their car.  Footage will be used for TV coverage of the ARC 2011 Championship season, to be shown in Australia on OneHD

It met their requirements for a rugged High Definition Video camera that was easy to use, producing full 1080P broadcast quality at a realistic price.  RaceRecall and Black Magic Media have developed a special ARC & Targa Kit, which has everything required to correctly and safely mount and record broadcast quality video and intercom audio.  Kit cost is only $858, including all mounts, an intercom cable and 2 memory cards.

Freehand Productions, the makers of Top Gear Australia recently evaluated a number of High Definition on board video cameras for use in the new 2011 season, to be shown on the Nine Network.

These cameras are to be used for the shots inside the car. Two products were tested side by side and the RadCam HDPro came up trumps over the newly released Vio POV.HD.  The main critereia was overall video quality and ease of use and the RadCam excelled in both these areas. GoPro HD Hero Cameras are also used for specialised shots.

Price was not an issue, but at $200 cheaper, the RadCam HDPro was the obvious choice on all fronts.

The RadCam HDPro was also the camera of choice for the recent coverage of the Bathurst 12 hour Race, to be shown on the Seven Network soon,
