CES 2009: Sony's Webbie HD Camera Might Make You Give a Flip
Sony debuted their Webbie HD handheld camcorder at CES. Available in three colors and capable of filming in high-def (1440x1080/30p, 1280x720/30p) or standard definition (640x480/30p), the Webbie HD is Sony's answer to the popular Flip MinoHD released last year.
The camera is only 1.7 inches wide and 2.4 inches tall, and records in HD or standard MP4 format. The 2.5-inch LCD screen swivels 270 degrees, making self-shooting easier. A 5MP CMOS sensor allows the WebbieHD to take strong still images, and the lens features 5x optical zoom and 20x digital zoom with 5 scene selection modes. The built-in mic allows stereo 2-channel recording.
It runs on a lithium-ion battery (full charge gets you about 85 minutes), and the compatible 16 GB Memory Stick Pro Duo (sold separately) will net you about 8.5 hours of hi-def video.
The Sony Webbie HD lists for $199 and will be available soon.

If the supplied Li-ion battery can only last up to 85 minutes, what's the use of having a 16GB MS that lasts 8.5 hours?

The Sony Webbie HD Video Camera is designed for people who love to post videos to You Tube and other web sharing sites. The Webbie records High Definition MP4 video that plays easily on websharing sites and bogs, and also takes sharp, 5-megapixel still shots with no problem. The HD MP4 format is extremely versatile, and makes media files small enough to be easily transferred to a PC or Mac via a standard USB cable.
