my Bloggle is DEAD I have only had this camera for 2 years and its dead. It will not recharge, turn on nothing... Very disappointed. Used it 3 months ago now nothing. I am going on vacation this week was looking forward to using it. Now I will not have pictures. This is the first time in 20 years I am disappointed with Sony.. June 18, 2012

Focus is PooR I am a floorcovering installer and I record before & after video of my jobs... ZERO PERCENT of every job i've recorded are in focus, ALWAYS BLURRY!!! p.s. still video's turn out, anytime i am walking or moving the camera IT WILL NOT FOCUS June 15, 2012

Won't Focus Indoors It absolutely will NOT FOCUS properly indoors. I took this camera to test Blog with inside two very large well lit malls, It went out of focus and stayed that way from one end to the other, in both malls. Also I went into a few of the stores including a large Belks, Dillards and JCP. Same problem. I also tried a couple of other store locations including a very large, well lit Walmart, and Target and it would NEVER Focus properly in either of them. All video is blurry. There is NO manual focus option, so you are stuck with it's inability to focus indoors. I really wanted to love this camera, and for outdoors in bright light it works very well assuming you don't use the digital zoom much. The image stabilization, I found to work very well while panning. Also the audio quality is very good. It's indoors where the problems are. I so much wish Sony will eventually address and improve this cameras poor indoor performance. February 5, 2012

Bloggie Burn I had no idea there was no flash with this product. I was shocked when I found out! Why would you sell a camera with no flash? That is just rediculous! I purchased the Sony Bloggie Touch from Dell for my daughter for Christmas. Three weeks afrter Christmas I asked her why she was not using her Bloggie. She said it was because she could not get it to take good pictures, that the colors were all messed up. Well, one thing led to another and we figured out it was because there is no flash and all the pics she was taking were indoors. Imagine that...a 14 year old girl taking pics indoors in the winter...again why wouldn't there be a flash?! It is past Dell's return period so they will not take it back. I called Sony. They really do not care. Their whole attitude was "you are stuck with it." Even though I pointed out that IT DOES NOT SAY ANYWHERE THERE IS NO FLASH ON THIS PRODUCT Sony will not be responsible for nondisclosure. I never would have bought a camera without a flash for a 14 year old girl...or even myself. They say it is my issue because it does not say anywhere that it DOES come with a flash. Again...why wouldn't you put a flash on a camera? Well Sony...Real nice customer service and consumer support!!! January 18, 2012
