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.
