Christmas Gift I got this for Christmas. I had never heard of a Sony Bloggie, and I am going to soon be traveling, and need a way to keep family updated when I am away. I love how easy this is to use, and the software is very easy to access. I recommend this to anyone who needs a quick way to send video via Facebook, email, or any other sort of contact company. The look and feel of the camera is light, and I like how it also takes pictures. The quality of the footage is great, and I love my pink bloggie. Overall a great product and I have zero complaints. I feel that you get what you pay for here on this product. December 26, 2011
Great video capture I am using this camera for last three days. It captures very nice high resolution pictures and imazing quality while moving HD recording. I have tested while driving and was surprise by the result. Well worth for the price. Very handy and easy fit in pocket. August 14, 2011
horizontal not vertical i just made a video and put the bloggie duo vertically, and then after 4 minutes of video i realized it would be better horizontally June 24, 2011
great pocket camcorder I absolutely love this pocket cam. I got in the green color and it sure looks stylish. I love the dual screens because it saves a lot of mirror usage that can be a huge pain. The image quality is better than I expected. Colors are very vivid and the automation feature seems smarter than how I would configure for the best shot. Image stabilization is pretty good. My main gripe with this device is that it only has 4GB of space..I mean c'mon..why not at least 8GB? anyway, I haven't reach the limit yet so no worries for now... May 14, 2011
