If you’re ready to take the big leap out of the point and shoot world, and try an SLR on for size then the Sony A230 might be the right transition for you. This camera features 10.2 megapixel sensor, 9 point auto focus, built-in image stabilization, a 2.7 inch display and is also the most compact and lightest of Sony’s lineup. $550.
Accidental or not, the new naming nomenclature of the latest Sony Digital SLRs sound more like airliners than cameras. The A230, A330, and A380 from the Alpha series pack a lot of features for the first-time DSLR shooters or for seasoned pros. Starting the new lineup is the A230 with the 10.2 megapixel sensor and weighs just a hair under 16 ounces so as not to scare the shifters from point-and-shoots. Both the A330 and A380 on the other hand have larger sensors, but every one of these new bodies come with the SteadyShot image stabilization feature. This means that you won’t need to spend a fortune on image-stabilized, hard-to-find Sony lenses. Good news too for SD/SDHC owners, you could use those for the Sony Alpha instead of the proprietary Memory Stick. $550+.
Modern technology keeps advancing and small gadgets are getting even smaller and thinner like the Sony Handycam HDR-TG5V which sports a super slim casing. Its titanium-coated body is designed to be durable and can resist any elements that might come across your trip. It displays a 1920×1080 resolution with a 16GB of onboard storage, and a 2.7-inch LCD. Capture every moment with passion and sophistication with Sony’s HDR-TG5V camcorder. $1,000.
Aside from cars and women, a camera is to be considered as one of the “toys for the big boys”. The Sony HX1 Cyber-Shot is definitely part of the list. It’s basically everything we want in a digital camera! With a 9.1 Mpixel Exmor CMOS at the engine, the HX1 features a pro-quality 28mm wide-angle lens with 20x optical zoom. It even has a rate of 10 frames per sec on it’s burst mode! Another interesting feature is it’s sweep panorama technology which helps us in making those 224 degrees of scenery. Wait! there’s more! It has the capability of shooting those HD quality videos at 30 fps in MP4 format! Beat that! $500.
If your looking for a phone to make all your iPhone friends jealous, then look no further than Sony Ericsson’s new W995 Walkman Phone. This slider has all the normal features such as bluetooth, 3G and WiFi, we get an 8.1 megapixel camera, complete with flash and autofocus, 8GB of internal storage to store them all, GPS with GoogleMaps, and even the ability to function as a DLNA media server. This one should really be on your wish list. $TBA.
If you have been looking for a laptop that is ultimately portable, but with the features that you need for business and personal use, then you should try the new Sony VAIO P. This ultra-portable laptop weighs 1.4 pounds, with a size that is comparable to an ordinary envelope. It has an eight-inch screen and is fully-loaded with the features that any user would want. This model has a built-in webcam, bluetooth connectivity, Wi-Fi connectivity, built-in Verizon Wirless 3G Mobile Broadband. It also has a media bar interface that allows users to access their saved music, videos, and photos. $900.
