Hands On With The Sony Bloggie

After being announced at CES 2010, blogs camera / camera is fairly good for Sony, but there are still many out there who do not know yet. Actually, this is the second generation of Webb, but with a new name and new features. We believe that blogs are big enough for the money and probably over MinoHD Flip in many respects. Blog There are two models, ENSA CM5 and MHS-PM5, and both offer 19,201,080 th (30 fps) and 1280720p (60 fps) video recording is not high definition, which are ways to find
MinoHD Flip or UltraHD is.



Both models have a start time and super fast USB memory built into this section and allows you to connect a standard USB port. It is important to clarify that the PM5 has 4x digital zoom, while the CM5 has a 5x optical zoom and 20x digital zoom. In addition, each model the ability to image at a resolution of 5 megapixels, which is something most competitors do not. We were also impressed by the big-screen 2.4-inch LCD, the battery is removable and very flexible, memory card (Memory Stick Duo and SD so impressive.)

Here are our hands on the movie:



Blogging can also record video in almost any shade of MP4 (H.264) potential including 720p and 480p 30fps additional SD at 30fps, and as described above. The five-megapixel CMOS average performance, but suffers from poor lighting conditions and exposure compensation is apparently slow. We realized that MiniHD much faster to correct exposure with chassis analysis and focus the light of the situation. Adding SteadyShot image stabilization is nice, but is limited in a certain way (that does not work in 1080p and 720p at 60 fps).

Another nice feature of blogs is rarely discussed is the integrated software, Picture Motion Browser Portable can be loaded automatically each time you connect to a computer via USB blogs. This small and handy software allows you to upload a work soon to popular websites like YouTube, Photobucket, Twitter, Facebook, Picasa, etc. But we have been very disappointed with that 64-bit Windows is not compatible with the software .

There is no doubt that this is the best sub-$ 200 camera u2013% of turnover is a unique quality for the price. Blogging is fast autofocus, the colors are rich and accurate, a monkey and a microphone are really decent. Face recognition technology is robust and 5x optical zoom in PM5 is a great touch and range. The quality of thought that I was a little "very solid, metal is not constant, but the plastic construction.

Battery life is a bit down on our experiences. Lens not hardware blogs open / closed is and must use a lens, which is probably nothing to lose in time. There is no manual focus either. A screen is a bit "hard to see unless the angle.

It seemed to me, instead I would take the thumb press. Just do not hold a camera with one hand and use the zoom and record button, without much emotion going. It's just bad design, especially for focal length. To have a steady upswing, while the zoom, put two hands on the camera. The same applies when you take a picture. If you want a video of sporting events for the child, it is better in bright sunny days or gym. Low-light performance of this camera is terrible. I sincerely hope that the next version of this device has a R-type lens Exmor performs exceptionally well in these situations.

You can see the aliasing effects while recording in 720p, no 1080p. It seems that Sony has a digital camera in the scale of other than multiples of pixel size. Another complained that the cost depends on USB camera, and Sony does not include a USB adapter on the wall / AC. be connected to the computer and plug it in, what is "eco-hostile .


Another thing I'd like to mention is the seizure of 360 degrees to get if you buy MHS-PM5K. Fixture 360 is to keep VCL-BPP1. This is a new brand of accessories, Sony had never done before, but I think it is good in theory but there are some limitations that make it a little "weak. As soon as I connect to my blog, it will automatically change the resolution to 720p at 30 fps, that does not support 720p or 1080p at 60 fps.

Record movies in 720p at 30 frames per second ring of 360 degrees (video click wheel) and integrated with software able to deform the film providing a horizontal format, which is quite strange. Unfortunately, when you watch video at 360 degrees of reflection lens cover is a bit "distraction. It seems to zoom to fill the frame with a mirror, but because digital zoom is to the end of aliasing artifacts. Unwarping software so aggravates the problem by using the sampling method aka the poor against the video. If the camera can not see the exhibits that digital zoom can disappear and the picture may be useful .

Cut clear plastic cover around the lens 360 substantially improves image quality and eliminates the problem of evil thinking. This leads to another problem, but some stray light lens without a black top clear plastic cover flat on the block. Shoot down the lens seems to solve the problem of stray light and the view is really better. Bright has been removed in the 360-degree video Camel and zebras, which exist in India VR Tours. See also how to crop an image from this setting and how it is much better than the standard.

Sony was late to the handheld camera, and if you build your blog from wide range of functions, feels swollen. The old adage of quality over quantity does not sound fake, hidden Blogghe Ultra HD in your hand will cut the field to win simplified user-friendliness, more than I do. Opportunity to change the resolution and play with different goals were nice, but something to say, if you prefer to 720p 1080p.

It really hurts me to say this because I was convinced that I am a window with the blogs I was so beaten up that it could open buying after writing this review rush. Instead, I will participate in a group of fans to get Flip Ultra HD platform.

Connectivity

HDMI would be blogs, but this is offset by the Memory Stick PRO Duo / SD / SDHC. I clicked on the Memory Stick into my PS3 and watch all my movies again in a few seconds on television. Since both cameras using built-in USB arm for the PS3 is also true for contact, but the memory card slot is a nice train. It also means you can have multiple blogs on the front of the store only has a capacity of 8 GB.

Battery

It was a bit difficult to judge battery life of two video cameras, and (after each test to me directly on my MacBook and yes, they're running OS X and Windows) compatible, which are automatically loaded. Blogghe shows fully charged and uses a total of about three hours last week support here and there in about five minutes at a time. Flip the appointment of two hours and do not keep blogs, and juice, removable battery fitted, which has given a bonus in my book.

Record high-definition video and photos

Just point and shoot, and then in the Internet cafe, plug-blogs Sony and embedded downloaded to the camera, life is PMB Portable software.

Macro

Both cameras are equipped with digital zoom, but no significant difference between the two: You can use the zoom-flip. I think that this demo video shows how Blogghe picture really bad, but the concept in the middle of the road (it is 4-fold), Zoom, is the amount of visual noise that it offers astounding. It is like static on a TV Watch. This has happened abroad is, when photographing flowers at close range.

Neither device can process the next flower, which was 2 cm from the lens () no zoom. The main focus outside of the actual coverage was to escape in time in a position to the second layer of flowers, there were about 4 cm. I Blogghe visible only in the third layer of the flowers begin to pay because he is a good 6-8 cm from the lens. Not a lot of problems during the filming of flowers, that's true, but imagine if, in addition to the iPhone, which can be filmed and not even the icons?

out-of-doors

The park was a great opportunity to see how Blogghe in broad daylight (in a sunny spot not already covered) days. There was no wind, the highest number of flip-blogs repealed (actually a little song of birds in a moment) stand, but generally do not give back to the colors much better than it was blogs.

360 degree lens

The main attraction of this device to other similar brands is the ability to slow down. Built-in lens can be rotated at an angle of 270 degrees, ideal for a filmmaker. The second way to get another goal in mind, the video camera at 360 degrees. There are a lot of fun, especially when you lay on the sofa and ran into the room, as I am, but I can not imagine the added expense in the pocket and get the desire to use d 'to. Would you lost in the draw, forget about a month. You can see my work from the point below where the story jumps on strong legs Talking Heads concert. Shame

Design

Blogging is "Sony" in style. This means that a black gloss and cheap parts that I can see very quickly broken, the door covering the USB and AV output.
