Will it BREAK, DROWN, FREEZE & BURN? SONY TX5 Camera review

July 6, 2010 - 11:20 pm 25 Comments

Sony’s “tough” camera; Will it Blend? phht, probably, those Blendtec Blenders are STUPID evil, but Will Sony’s little “tough” point and shoot happy snapper survive the torture test of Blunty? A man KNOWN to not just void warranties, but violate them with the thick end of a baseball bat… lets see.

Blunty3000 puts the SONY Cyber-shot DSC-TX5 camera he was offered for review, through it’s hoops to see if it really IS as tough as sony have been telling people… by giving it several Drop tests, submersion in water, freezing it solid and setting it on fire*

Oh, and in case you were wondering, the time-lapse footage was shot on my iPhone 3GS using the ReelMoments app, and I had it mounted to the tripod using my OWLE Bubo (reviewed here; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kWjp5UeVxuE )

*note; Sony don’t actually claim that it’s fire-proof… at all… but it felt like a fun idea heh.

Criminal Mischief Vehicle Fire

May 29, 2010 - 11:23 am 1 Comment

CRIMINAL MISCHIEF ARREST
Two individuals have been arrested and charged with a criminal mischief offense, according to Sheriff Todd Entrekin.
“Haleigh Elizabeth Boland, 26, and her father Benny Gene Boland, 50, both of Boaz, was arrested and each charged with one count of first degree criminal mischief, which is a felony,” states Investigator Shane Hartley.
The Boland’s allegedly poured gasoline on a vehicle and set it on fire at a residence located on Carlisle Cut-Off Road in the Mountainboro community. The incident occurred on May 8th. Both daughter and father were arrested on May 18th.
Haleigh’s vehicle had been repossessed by an individual who live at the residence on Carlisle Cut-Off Road. In retaliation of setting the victim’s car on fire, Haleigh caught herself on fire.
“When contacting the victim, she stated a video camera was set up at the residence and captured the incident on tape,” states Investigator Hartley.
The video shows Haleigh catching herself on fire and taking off the burning clothes as she ran to a vehicle to drive away.
When Investigator Hartley interviewed the Boland’s, Haleigh confessed to being the individual seen in the video. She suffered first and second degree burns on her upper body.
Both Haleigh and Benny have been released on $2,500 bond each.
