Sony Bloggie MHS-CM5

Upload your life.

When fun happens, the all-new pocket-sized bloggie™ camera lets you capture, upload and share the action in high definition. It plays nicely with sites like You Tube™, so it`s easy to upload your photos and videos to the web.

Capture

Record everything in beautiful, 1920x1080 high definition MP4 (H.264) format. MP4 is a popular multimedia format that compresses the size of your audio and video, making files small enough to easily transfer to your compatible PC or Mac.

Upload

Swing out the built-in USB arm and connect your camera directly to your compatible PC or Mac. It`s the quick and easy way to upload videos and charge your battery without having to hunt for cables.

Share

Show your videos to the world. Just use the pre-installed Picture Motion Browser (PMB) Portable software to pre-select videos and images in the camera and easily upload them to a compatible PC and popular INTERNET sharing sites. No additional software needed.

5X Optical Zoom

Zoom in on the fun. This bloggie camera boasts a 5x optical and 20x digital zoom that lets you move in close and capture the action with impeccable detail.

5-mega-pixel Still Shots

Capture the action with crystal-clear still shots to complement your video footage. The bloggie camera features a 5-mega-pixel CMOS sensor that lets you take crisp 5-mega-pixel still images.

2.5` Swivel Screen

Whether you`re shooting a friend`s antics or filming yourself, the handy 2.5` swivel screen rotates 270 degrees for the perfect view. And when the LCD is opened, the bloggie camera almost instantly powers on so you can start taking still shots or recording video immediately.
