Special Sony 10pin AV (Right-Angle)

Another Xtreme Recall exclusive - All of our cable harnesses have the option of adding the special Sony right-angle 10pin AV connector. This connector is needed to safely/comfortably use any Sony camcorder that has this now standard port.


This allows a true “three connector” 3rd Generation layout. No extra heavy cables, no failure prone adapters or awkward connectors sticking out so dangerously from the camcorder one good fall will damage your port (common without this right-angle connector). If you don't have a special right-angle connector, it isn't safe for you to use all the new Sony camcorders

You can select this connector type when ordering any of our packages, as well as on the cable harness itself when "building your own system" using this accessory page.

* If you have the "other guys" system and want this special right-angle connector, you can either purchase an adapter cable or get a full system upgrade from our Custom Shop. Please contact us for more information.

480 Sony ExView Color Micro-Camera (3rd generation)

We originally developed this unique micro-camera for the Army. But it has since become quite popular with Motocross riders, Snow boarders, Skiers.. anyone who needs the maximum in anti-vibration performance.

Physics states reducing vibration is a two part problem: good mount design + reduce camera/mount mass. At only 19mm x 60mm, and an almost weightless 44gr, this is easily the smallest/lightest Sony 1/3 ExView cam in existence today.

We recommend this micro-camera for all Military/Tactical/SWAT use, applications where vibration suppression is paramount or if you need the smallest possible camera size and frontal surface area.

Ruggedized for military and hard trail use, all Xtreme Recall micro-cameras come with these unique features:

420 Line Color Micro-Camera (3rd generation) *PAL ONLY

Using the same 19mm tube developed for the 480 Superlight (above), our 420 Superlight bridges the gap between genuine Pro Level ruggedness, size, weight and easy of use.. but at a more afford price.

In fact, the only difference between our 420 and 480 Superlight models is we use a lower resolution Sony 1/3” SuperHAD CCD in the 420 instead. That’s it. Everything else is still Professional Grade.

This micro-camera is a superb choice for “occasional use” enthusiasts, home/family or anyone needing the lowest cost possible without giving up audio and ease of use performance. This configuration is fully upgradeable; simply replace the micro-camera with one of our top-end models later. Everything else is the same.

Right Angle 10pin Adapter Cable

This is what you need to make "the other guys" work with our right angle 10pin. Since we don't know what system you have, make sure to choose the exact connectors you will need. Look at your helmet cam setup, if you only use one microphone on your system then you want only 2 RCA connectors (audio/video). If you order 3 RCA connectors in this configuration, you will end up with a bulkier adapter cable yet only one speaker having audio during playback. When you order only 2 RCA connectors we will merge your left/right audio together in the adapter so we will fill both speakers with sound automatically. Only order an adapter cable with 3 RCAs  if you are using a dual microphone setup, or otherwise have a unique requirement you know needs independent audio channels.

Some points to make note of:

  • This is not a “hack” job product. Each is manufactured, by hand, from an original raw OEM connector. Production time can be up to 1 week.

  • Instead of RCA’s, this 10pin adapter can also be supplied to terminate to male/female 3.5mm or any combination of RCA connectors. Please make sure you are ordering the correct style.

  • Due to component availability, we can not guarantee specific colors for the RCA connector moldings.

  • Total adapter lengths vary, but usually fall around 1 foot. For an additional $15 charge we can custom make the cable anywhere from 6 inches to 3 feet, please note your preferred length in the cart and the additional charge will be added when shipped.

  • The orientation of the right-angle 10pin is specific to your camcorder model. One reason we still hand make these adapters is it allows us to ideally configure to your particular camcorder model. Make sure to list your Sony model when ordering, if not listed the connector may end up blocking another port (i.e. your LANc remote port).

Mounts

Notes on Helmet Mounts: A properly designed helmet mount should do three things: Hold the micro-camera securely, be easily adjustable to fine tune your point of view after mounting and be quick to attached/detached when needed. A superbly designed mount also dampens vibration by design. This is mostly just an exercise in physics:

  • Hold the micro-camera as close to the mounting surface as possible. Full, direct contact is ideal

  • Reduce total micro-camera & mount weight as much as possible. Less weight = less vibration

This is why our mounts are designed the way they are.
