Great little camera!

The camera did not turn on upon receipt. I'll call and find out if the problem is with the battery or if it's completely dead. So far so bad. [UPDATE] After a quick phone call with Revane, the camera is now fully functional and ready to shoot! Great little camera.

Pros

I love Sony Bloggie

This is a camcorder that is very easy to use. I'm not very tech savvy so it was nice to find such an intuitive camcorder. The sound and picture quality is excellent for my purposes. I was able to easily post video clips and photos to my Facebook page.

Pros
  • Excellent design
Cons
  • Empty

Excellent! for camcorders

Excellent product for a beginner vlogger/videomaker. One tip is to make sure you're getting enough light on your subjects, so invest in multiple lights. Daylight is great for filming. The sound is actually quite clear. I have had this product for 4 years now and still use it.

Pros
  • Lots of positive emotions
Cons
  • Upgrade availability

Cool little camera!

Okay the video quality isn't Blu-Ray equivalent but for what I do with it it's great. I tie it to my helicopter for aerial photography. It's a bit annoying but for the price you can't expect more! Image quality drops off quickly in low light, but it's great for outdoor photography. Panning is perfect as I can mount the camera under the helicopter and tilt the camera forward to take a picture. Although I would like to be able to direct the video. It spins if you flip it all the way around, but…

Pros
  • Best in its niche
Cons
  • Not sure

fun and wearable. in camcorder

I never thought that I would one day buy a pocket camcorder. I bought an olmpus Ls 20m which is an audio recorder and comes with a camera. I have it for the audio part. I started using the camera and it seemed nice and portable, but the camera is poorly placed. You can check this model. Olmpus Ls-20m. That got me wrong. When I came across the Mhs-pm5, the first thing I liked was the swivel lens. I'm looking at the new Bloggie Touch and Bloggie 3D but not interested. This camera is perfect for…

Pros
  • Hands-free work
Cons
  • Doubtful purchase for the elderly

Thought it could be better

Dies very quickly, that's the first thing that caught my eye. Which makes it worse. I don't like how it crops the top and bottom of the screen when taking a video or photo and then fills it all in when it loads. I like the rotating lens, it's really nice. I don't like the position of the camera button, it's in a weird place which makes it difficult to take a picture of yourself. The navigation system for changing settings is confusing as hell, and I consider myself tech-savvy. Connected USB is…

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Some little things

Great and handy camcorder

Bought a Sony Bloggie from Revain along with a high speed Sony Memory Stick PRO-HG Duo HX 8GB Flash Memory Card with USB Reader MSHX8G for a 3 week trip to bermuda The camera is very compact, so it could easily be transported in the pocket of an old cell phone case. In fact, it's smaller than the iPhone or G1. This made it easy to quickly snap a photo or video. The integrated software also makes it easy to upload videos and photos to the Internet. There are several pages programmed into the…

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Some quirks
