So the Sony Bloggie HD that we won during the amazing race event we had with Sony in Boracay has arrived. This is one of the first few units available and should be out in stores this month.
So, what comes out of the box? The Bloggie, 4GB memory stick, RCA cable, 960mAh battery, carrying pouch, USB cable extender and an extra 360-degree camera lens (that easiyl attaches on the built-in swivel lens).
The Bloggie can do several HD movie recording — 720p @ 30fps, 720p @ 60 fps and 1080p @ 30fps. My favorite part is the 60fps to get that slow-mo recording. The interesting feature is the 360-degree video recording mode. Will have to test that out along with the slow-mo. Will publish a full review soon.
It might worth a fortune! Hope it will be cheap as flip HD.
Happy Beeday to my sister Joana!

Nice 360° attachment lens.Is it true about the 30mins. limit on taking videos?
Others say after 30mins. the camera turns itself off.
Hopefully you can confirm on this.
@hardlock888: I have the MHS-CM5 bloggie version (the pistol grip type) and it uses the same battery as the MHS-PM5K/MHS-PM5 (NP-BK1 battery). I can use it a little over an hour. I’ve been searching over the net for the battery performance of both bloggies and found out that they’re about the same.
been waiting for a full review on this…
@juan : i saw one on the mall and it was selling around 15k – comes with the 360 lens adjustment thingie ma jig…where you can attach it on the lens to get that 360 effect.
[...] Japan’s Sony also came out with the Bloggie, in answer to Flip and Vado. ony added some features on the Bloggie particularly on the lenses; unlike the Vado and the Flip Video with fixed cameras on one side, the Bloggie has a swiveling lens allowing the user to take a video of himself while looking at the LCD screen. (Read blogger Yugatech’s review of the Sony Bloggie) [...]
To all Filipinos who wanna buy this amazing camera (in the Philippines),
The last time I checked, it’s Php12,000… And maybe if you wait a liitttllleee longer, it’ll get cheaper, that’s what I do.
