Sony storms CES

Here's a look at some of Sony's new products, including new 3D TVs and camcorders and laptops billed as more affordable alternatives to Apple's MacBook Air.

Sony Bloggie 3D

The 3D Sony Bloggie is one of three new Bloggie camcorders, but it's the only one that shoots in 3D. It has a parallax-barrier screen that allows you to see a 3D effect when playing back video and stills on its 2.4-inch LCD screen.

The camcorder's two lenses are arranged vertically when you hold the Bloggie 3D upright, and 3D shooting requires tilting the camcorder to landscape orientation while recording. The Bloggie 3D also boasts two CMOS sensors behind its lenses; it shoots 1920-by-1080 HD video through each channel, but because its video playback uses the side-by-side 3D display method, 3D clips lose a bit of resolution.

The new Bloggie offers 8GB of on-board storage, which Sony says translates to four hours of HD video recording in 2D mode. Other specs include an autofocus mode, a macro mode, a 4x digital zoom, 5-megapixel still capture, and a flip-out USB connector for offloading media and recharging the battery.
