Tough new Bloggie™ Sport keeps pace with the action

From parties, gigs and fun days out to adventure-packed holidays: the new MHS-TS22 Bloggie Sport from Sony keeps pace with whatever’s happening. Shooting Full HD videos and detail-packed stills at the touch of a button, the tough new HD snap camera even shrugs off water, dust, sand and shocks.

Boasting a colourful new look, Bloggie Sport is ruggedly styled with gently curved lines for a sure, comfortable grip. It’s waterproof*1, withstanding immersion in 5m of water for up to an hour. You can even use the touchscreen while you’re snorkelling or diving: there’s also a special underwater shooting mode that adjusts colour balance for beautifully natural results. Ideal for active lifestyles, Bloggie Sport handles drops*2 from a height of 1.5m, or dusty*3 conditions on the beach or mountainside.

Bloggie Sport is brilliantly simple and fun to use, whatever you’re doing. Shoot with the camera in portrait or landscape position: the informative on-screen display ‘flips’ automatically for comfortable viewing in either orientation.

With its bright autofocus/automacro lens and sensitive Exmor CMOS sensor, Bloggie Sport shoots clear, beautiful images in any situation – even at dusk or indoors. SteadyShot keeps images stable and blur-free, while Face Detection keeps portraits crisp and clearly exposed. Dual Record lets you grab still photos without interrupting video recording. If you're shooting after dark, a built-in LED throws more light on arm's-length self-portraits and close-up shots.

Video footage captured in Full HD mode (1920x1080/30p) is perfect for viewing on your HD TV or PC. There’s also an HD mode (1280x720/30p); HD Sports mode (1280x720/60p) for fast-moving subjects; and Lite mode (480x270/30p) for super-quick uploads to social networking sites. A generous 4GB of internal memory gives space to store around 2 hours of HD video.

If you’re shooting in a hurry, the handy ‘Share-it-Later’ function lets you tag clips and still images via the touchscreen for easy uploads to Facebook, YouTube or PlayMemories Online when you’re back home.

Sharing your memories couldn’t be easier. Connect Bloggie Sport to your PC via the camera’s built-in USB arm that also recharges the camera’s built-in battery. Full compatibility with PlayMemories Home software by Sony makes it beautifully easy to upload videos and stills to your favourite sharing sites. PlayMemories Home can be installed via the camera’s Setup Guide website. It’s accessible at www.sony.net/start/bloggie or from a shortcut on the camera’s internal memory.

An HDMI port connects Bloggie Sport to your HD TV or compatible PC for a big-screen view of your photos and videos.
