Camera

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.

Onward we go to the compact cameras that I’ve found with a built-in interval timer (intervolometer). Please add to the list in the comments! I’m always looking for more compacts that have timers. Sorry that I lingered on the almost impossible to find Epsons but they served some other important points.
