Get in touch with your creative side
Sony's Bloggie Touch has everything you want and nothing you don't. It's miniscule (but not so small you'll lose track of it) with loads of space (8GB) and makes the most of both video (MP4) and still image photography (12.8 megapixels, to be exact) with the help of the 1/2.5 Exmor CMOS sensor. So whether you're into making movies or just capturing the current moment, the Bloggie will you the best shot. But we're just warming up here.
Capture all 360 glorious degrees
If hitting the skate park is your idea of creative fodder, you'll fall head over heels for Sony's Bloggie Touch with 360° panoramic video capabilities. Catch all the action happening around you in one fell swoop thanks to the special 360° video lens. Just attach the lens accessory and start filming. Once you've got your footage recorded, the Bloggie converts the content into one crazy circular image. And fear not, you can share your cool new view of life on websites such as YouTube.
Putting a new spin on Face time
If you're obsessed with social media, you'll be obsessed with Sony's Bloggie. It comes with Bloggie v.1.0 software that puts blog effects at your fingertips. You can easily tag videos and images when you're on the run and queue them for upload to your favorite social media site, such as Facebook or YouTube, the next time you sync up — which, by the way, is super easy thanks to the internal, flip-out USB drive. Plus, advanced Sony features like SteadyShot image stabilization, Auto Macro focus mode, and Face Detection ensure you get the best shot the first time around. And, best of all, the graphic user interface doesn't require a PhD in engineering to operate it.
Go big
Okay, 8 gigs sounds big, but what exactly does it equate to? Well, the Bloggie will hold 80 minutes worth of Full HD (12M) video, 160 minutes worth of 6M (1280 x 720) video, and 240 minutes worth of 4M (1280 x 720) video. If still photos are your bag, you can squeeze a good 290 images onto the internal flash memory. (A little fuzzy on flash drives? Flash is fast and durable — need more be said?)
Get full coverage
We know there's nothing worse than trying to navigate a small device with a small screen. Luckily, the Sony Bloggie Touch has an ample 3.0" Touch Screen LCD that provides 100% coverage for playback and is self-orienting. So, (a) you get a full-screen preview of your socially engineered masterpiece, (b) you don't have to bother yourself with up, down, or sideways, and (c) you have a palette that won't crowd your fingertip — even those of you who fall in the ET end of the spectrum.
