Sony HDR-HC1 1080i Camcorder

This auction is for a Sony HDR-HC1 HD Camcorder.  I originally bought this a couple years ago before the birth of my son.  It has been awesome.  This is not your typical camcorder.  It produces very high quality videos.  In HD Mode it records at 1080i ( 1440 x 1080 ) with a 25 Mbit/s data rate, and 384 kbps stereo 48kHz Audio Rate.  The camera has a ton of features and functions including night mode, most of which I never used.  The lense is a Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T*.   It records on regular Mini DV tapes.  No need to use HDV tapes, the Mini DV tapes always worked good for me.  In total I recorded about 10 hours of video with this unit.  Its in good condition, with just minor scuffs on the body.  The optics are are very clean, and in great condition.  This unit can be used for Video, or as a still camera.  It has a popup flash for still photos, which are recorded to Memory Stick Duo Cards.  A 32 MB card is included.   I don't have the original packaging ( couldn't find it ).  The unit will come with both a standard capacity battery, and an extended capacity battery.  Also includes wall charger for the batteries, IR remote, and Firewire cables.  I came to find the charger also works with various other types of Sony batteries, as I was also able to use it to charge the batteries of my Sony DSLR A700.
