Audio Features
The audio features of the Sony MHS-PM1 Webbie HD are rather limited. The microphone is tiny so it won't pick up the best sound and the internal speaker isn't very good either. The camcorder compresses audio using AAC encoding. Recording audio in the crowded, noisy convention center at CES didn't give us the best idea of how well the MHS-PM1 picks up sound, but it seemed to do a serviceable job. The microphone's capabilities are definitely comparable to that of the Pure Digital Flip series of camcorders, which is to say they aren't wonderful but they get the job done.
