How do you get the video to work on a Sony Bloggie Sport Camera?




Christophe


The recording ability doesn't work anymore and I've only had it for a week. It doesn't do anything when I hit record, but the regular pictures work fine.

Hi Christopher, and welcome to Yahoo!Answers:

Many flash-memory HD cameras won't let you start a new video recording unless a certain amount of free-memory is available (they also won't record video if a too-small SD card is inserted). Photos don't require the same large amounts of empty storage, so even though the SD card may not be completely full, you can still take stills but not video.

Off-load all your content onto a computer for safe storage, then use the camera's menu to erase some (or all) the video files (don't use your computer to do this!) and see if video recording is restored.

Otherwise, call or email Sony Support since your Bloggie is still in warranty.

hope this helps,

Any suggestions for a good video camera?




Ulises


Looking for a good video camera preferably under $250. I do side work such as record weddings, gradations, sporting events etc,,,. The camera i was using was not mine it was my roommates and he moved out. So what are some good brands and models? Thank you!!


Answer
If you want to do video, buy a camcorder, such as the Sony HDR-CX230.

If you are looking to buy a camera in your price range, you are not going to get high video performance... you will get something that will probably only record for a few minutes, and be the source of much frustration. Thing is, cameras are first and foremost designed for taking photos... video is a secondary function. And the less expensive a camera is, the poorer video performance it has.

One exception may be the Nikon P330. It does a decent job at video, but is still limited by the short time limit it can record.
