I got a great deal on my Bloggie, and only paid $60 for it. I have never once had to look at the manual because it is so easy to use. Not only is it easy to use while doing pictures and videos, but it is also amazingly easy to transfer those to your comp! It plugs directly into the USB port and you're good to go. Easy peasy! Also, it's totally portable and comes with a great little carrying pouch. I have a Canon Rebel SLR, so I was always having the issue of lugging it around and worrying about breaking it because it was so expensive. The bloggie has 12 megapixels and also takes videos in HD, so it's portable but also takes high quality content. I now carry my Bloggie around everywhere I go and now I'm ready when those impromptu Kodak moments come up! It's got the best of both worlds; small yet poweful. There are only 2 things I dislike about the Bloggie. The first is that the battery does not seem to last long. But, the Bloggie comes with a plug in charger so that you can charge it in any standard socket. Secondly, there is no light or flash on the Bloggie, so it is sort of useless in the dark. But, those are the only downsides to the Bloggie that I've found. All in all, those are things that I can overlook. But if you want to do a lot of pics or vids at night, I wouldn't recommend the Bloggie for you. But if you don't mind those two things, then I'd say get the Bloggie. You won't regret it. It's a great little camera, and it makes sharing your life on your social networking sites so easy. Hope anyone who buys it likes theirs as much as I like mine!Read full review
It's a great concept,but it isn't easy to send pictures by E-mail. The Sony sight doesn't seem to support this model any longer. I wasn't able to create an account with Sony. The Bloggie itself is easy to use. Has decent picture and sound quality. Fun to use, but I wanted something that I could easily put pictures on Ebay, or send directly to my friends. So far, that hasn't been possible for me.
I like the camera, but you cannot photograph ocean views. I bought the camera to photograph homes, as I am a Realtor. Many of the homes I photograph have ocean views, but with this camera the ocean does not show up- However, it may be possible that all of these types of cameras have the same issue. It may be because it is designed to photograph in low light. It also takes a while in low light to focus. Overall it is a nice camera, but you cannot photograph a brightly lit subject. The “Sony upload” is terrible, but Youtube works great. It produces na Mp4 movie, with needs to be converted to avi to edit and back to mp4 to upload. If you never plan on edits it is fine and it is easy to convert. Also not sure if other cameras produce a mp4 movie, so nothing to compare to.
Just received my Sony Bloggie today and I started shooting right out of the box without reading any manual, it's so easy to use and I can take photos while shooting a video, which was great. It's very light weight and small so I can take it anywhere to shoot HD videos. The only down side is that it doesn't include a flash and memory expansion slot.
Great little gadget except for the clicking I've been hearing about when you record video. Now you don't hear the clicking noise until you upload the video but it's a very nice little gadget. Fits in the hand and easy to pick up and use. Nice build quality. I found it easier to upload videos if you check it to upload later, it seems to upload faster than just syncing the unit to the computer and uploading that way. Touch controls are not capacitive, you have to apply a bit of pressure when you use the touch screen. If you can get over the clicking noise (not all units have this problem) that can be a bit of a pain for some videos then this is the gadget for you. I bought this product to record video blogs or unboxing videos.
