00:00:00,640 --> 00:00:07,360
today we're going to be doing a quick unboxing of the Sony bloggy so the model

2
00:00:05,200 --> 00:00:11,400
this is is the MHS pm5k I don't know what color it is yet

3
00:00:09,840 --> 00:00:15,719
but the basic specs that you see right on the front are that it records in full

4
00:00:13,160 --> 00:00:19,119
HD 1080 okay then we move around to the back and you can see all the different

5
00:00:17,199 --> 00:00:24,160
things it has support for so you can upload an email directly from the bloggy

6
00:00:21,400 --> 00:00:27,840
to Shutterfly Picassa YouTube as well as Facebook so you can easily share with

7
00:00:26,039 --> 00:00:32,800
your friends and family you plug it into your PC using a built-in USB Port so

8
00:00:30,759 --> 00:00:36,280
it's kind of like the uh the Flip minoh HD in that respect you don't actually

9
00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:43,200
have to fuss around with any cables or anything like that you just plug right in and it also includes a 360 video lens

10
00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:47,800
so that means that you can take video in 360° around the camera and there's no

11
00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:52,480
way that I could go without testing that it works on Mac it works on PC it

12
00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:57,239
supports SDHC which is great I'm glad Sony's finally supporting these standard

13
00:00:55,440 --> 00:01:01,440
memory cards rather than only memory stick but it also does support memory

14
00:00:59,239 --> 00:01:03,840
stick okay so the first thing we find in the Box you know what I'm going to go

15
00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:08,080
ahead and put this on the cameraman's hood he's probably cringing while I do

16
00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:13,040
that but the first thing we find is a driver dis then we have a quick little

17
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:18,640
instruction paper that shows you how to take out the USB port then we have for

18
00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:23,640
us customers receive 15% off your next purchase of something uh limited

19
00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:27,840
warranty card consumer oneyear warranty

20
00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:30,159
terms then you've got um an important

21
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:35,360
notice well if it is important and then surely we'll have to have a look uh

22
00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:38,759
don't disassemble your battery pack don't drop it in water all that kind of

23
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:42,759
important stuff thank you for drawing our attention to that mobile HD snap

24
00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:47,040
camera instruction manual here is the manual and then for if your product is

25
00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:51,280
not working properly do not return it to the store okay all right so let's see

26
00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:57,799
what we find inside first of all this is probably the most exciting accessory in

27
00:01:53,280 --> 00:02:00,079
the Box this is the 360° lens so this

28
00:01:57,799 --> 00:02:06,399
allows I almost dropped it this this allows us to take video in

29
00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:08,840
360° around the bloggy so yeah obviously

30
00:02:06,399 --> 00:02:13,920
we will have to try that all right that goes there for now then we have a

31
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:21,519
composite video as well as audio output so we can output directly from the blogy

32
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:23,120
then we have a USB extension cable oh

33
00:02:21,519 --> 00:02:25,840
okay in case there's oh I see what this is for so you can plug that into your

34
00:02:24,519 --> 00:02:29,000
computer in case there's not enough space like if your ports are crowded and

35
00:02:27,640 --> 00:02:34,560
then you can plug the bloggy into this end then we have oh they include a

36
00:02:31,640 --> 00:02:39,040
memory stick wow they include a 4 gig memory stick Pro Duo that's nice I mean

37
00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:44,920
I remember the last time I bought a camera it came with I think it was like

38
00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:47,000
an 8 Meg uh SD card or something stupid

39
00:02:44,920 --> 00:02:51,360
like that okay then we've got o we have a little like shammy case for it so you

40
00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:55,040
can either use that to wipe off your screen or you can potentially store it

41
00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:58,640
in it although it doesn't really look big enough for that yeah it's not big

42
00:02:57,519 --> 00:03:03,400
enough for that okay I don't get the point of this but it's there and then we

43
00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:06,640
have a wrist strap down there and last but not least we have a battery so let's

44
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:10,080
get the battery out let's put the battery in so I guess the first thing

45
00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:13,720
we're going to learn today is how to put the battery into this thing uh rotate to

46
00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:19,640
power on okay I powered it

47
00:03:16,319 --> 00:03:22,920
on uh can't quite figure out the battery

48
00:03:19,640 --> 00:03:25,720
yet but I'll get there don't worry

49
00:03:22,920 --> 00:03:30,720
there's the USB as well as the audio and video out so that's where we find all of

50
00:03:28,640 --> 00:03:35,040
our our inputs and out so you just slide this little switch right here to get the

51
00:03:32,519 --> 00:03:38,599
USB port out you've also you've got a little tripod mount so just in case you

52
00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:42,799
wanted to take a little video on your little tripod you could do that so this

53
00:03:40,799 --> 00:03:47,280
is how you turn it on you just rotate this right here so the screen can come

54
00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:51,239
out this way or it can come out the top or it can come out that way so if you

55
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:57,920
actually if you're mounting your 360° lens it actually goes on just like this

56
00:03:55,000 --> 00:04:02,079
something like that yeah there we go so it just Clips on like that and then

57
00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:06,599
that's how you can uh take video all the way around the bloggy so here's either a

58
00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:13,360
speaker or a microphone one of the two and then this says lithium ah there's my

59
00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:15,319
battery nice so the battery goes in here

60
00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:19,160
just like that secured in by a little blue tab and then I'm going to throw my

61
00:04:17,239 --> 00:04:22,960
memory stick in here as well since they were kind enough to include one for me

62
00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:31,680
hopefully I'm putting that in the right way and why don't we try and turn this baby on so here let's take off our 360°

63
00:04:28,039 --> 00:04:36,680
lens and then uh see what happens if we

64
00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:39,639
turn it on so is it on is this thing on

65
00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:43,360
cool okay so uh we can actually see right now we can take video of the

66
00:04:41,199 --> 00:04:48,639
cameraman's uh new car which we're actually going to use the bloggy to do

67
00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:51,240
like a a video tour of very shortly here

68
00:04:48,639 --> 00:04:55,600
so we can either take pictures just by pressing that button oh there's a bit of

69
00:04:53,400 --> 00:05:00,120
a shutter delay there see I press the button oh no I press the button there

70
00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:03,720
and it takes a photo there so you can kind of live with that it's designed to

71
00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:07,840
be a video device and then we are taking video at

72
00:05:04,840 --> 00:05:09,320
720p uh 30 frames per second right now

73
00:05:07,840 --> 00:05:13,800
so uh I'm not actually going to show you this video I'll do another one shortly

74
00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:18,520
anyway that is my quick unboxing of the Sony bloggy um if you want to see any

75
00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:21,840
quick menu things actually why don't we do that really quickly so here let's

76
00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:28,080
have a look at our video options so we can go up to 1080p 30 frames per second

77
00:05:25,479 --> 00:05:33,759
we can go all the way down to VGA 30 frames per second if we want to

78
00:05:30,319 --> 00:05:35,000
although 720 720p 60 frames per second

79
00:05:33,759 --> 00:05:42,039
that's going to be probably your sweet spot where you're going to get nice smooth video and uh good HD quality and

80
00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:46,240
then for photos you can either go uh all the way down to VGA terrible terrible

81
00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:49,880
quality photos or you can go all the way up to 5 megapixels you can turn face

82
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:56,120
detection on and off and that's pretty much it there's not a whole lot of options here oh here's all the options

83
00:05:53,160 --> 00:06:01,080
flicker reduction LED backlight uh language settings can you read this

84
00:05:57,440 --> 00:06:03,759
cameraman okay good uh initialize that

85
00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:07,000
format copy Okay cool so that's pretty cool we're going to do a quick tour of

86
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:12,560
the cameraman's car and then thank you for checking out my unboxing of the Sony

87
