When it comes to doing a review, there are many ways to approach the product at hand. In either written or video form, do you focus on the technical specs? Do you create a video comparison and point out the differences between products, or do you simply use the device, shoot some footage, and let the viewers decide? This was the question I posed to myself when I wanted to cover the Sony Bloggie Live, the latest flagship MP4 camera. The basics of the Bloggie Live include full HD 1080p (30fps) and 720p (60/30fps) video, a 12.8-megapixel camera, 3-inch touchscreen with updated UI compared to the Sony Bloggie Touch with Wi-Fi capabilities, allowing you to stream your footage live. The Bloggie Live is also Mac/PC compatible, making it very easy to import video to your OS of choice.

Of course, as I said, there are many ways to review the Bloggie Live. We’ve already done  a comparison video of the Sony Bloggie Live against last year’s champion, the Bloggie Touch. In our video shootout challenge, the two cameras recorded identical footage and we placed the videos side by side, giving you a proper comparison of the two MP4 cameras video quality. This of course led to a question: what if we shoot a lot 1080p footage (scalable of course to 720p and lower) and let you sit back and enjoy it with some lively piano music and really decide for yourself? We of course will provide a full written review in the near future to talk about the nitty gritty of the camera, in which case, we will update this post with a link. After the jump, our video montage of the Sony Bloggie Live.
