Sony HDR-PJ50 is both a camcorder and projector

When I saw this pic of the Sony HDR-PJ50, I was not surprised. After all, it isn’t the first time I have seen a projector on a camera. Nikon did this with the Coolpix S1000pj, and 3M did this withShoot and Share camera as well.

The projector of the HDR-PJ50 is able to project an image of 60-inches on any flat surface, but you are probably going to have to be in a very dark room.

Then there is the usual feature of a 1920 x 1080 HD video and an unusual feature of a built-in 220GB hard drive. As you might have guessed, it is good for memory sticks or SD cards. It also has a built-in 220GB hard drive, so you can catch a lot of video.

Other features include a 12X Optical zoom, and stills that can be captured at 7.1 Megapixels. Audio is captured at Dolby Digital 5.1, and it has a stereo camera mounted microphone.

I’m not certain how successful the Sony HDR-PJ50 will be, as I have heard that theCoolpix S1000pj didn’t do so hot as far as sales are concerned. However, I could be wrong.

I also don’t see any reason why a camera shouldn’t have a projector, but it definitely has to be at a price that consumers can afford. In this case, the HDR-PJ50 is about $1,201.95, which is a little out of my price range.

Where photographers are inspired?

1x.com - http://1x.com
1x is a photo community with a difference. Take the work of the most talented photobloggers, various famous photographers, and many serious amateurs, select their best work and collect it all in one place - that is 1x. Everyone is welcome to contribute, but every photo is screened, which means it has to be approved by an editor (screener) before being published. 1x is a photo gallery with a constantly evolving exhibition. We publish dozens of new images every day.
Our screeners do not take it upon themselves to decide what is good or bad photography or what is art. However, we publish only a small fraction of the submissions. Many of the excellent images that don't get published simply do not fit our vision for 1x in terms of style or subject matter.
To be able to show images not published, 1x also offers a premium membership, which includes your own professional homepage with complete control over what photos to display.
We created 1x because we saw a need for a collection of pre-screened high quality photos without the vacation shots, pet portraits, and other snapshots that make up the bulk of other photo sites. We also wanted to provide a forum for more detailed photo critique than what other sites offer. And finally we wanted a site that was elegant and easy to navigate. Our mission is to find the sublime together, but even if this turns out to be too difficult, we hope that 1x can be a source of inspiration, a tool to help us develop as photographers, and a place to make some friends along the way.

PhotoSIG - http://www.photosig.com
photoSIG is a community of photographers and photography enthusiasts, ranging from amateurs to working professionals. photoSIG members who submit photographs are expected to write critiques for others .

photoSIG is designed to be self-maintaining. The worthiness, or unworthiness, of photos and critiques submitted by users is determined by the user community. Users have the opportunity to comment and critique, favorably or unfavorably, on photos and on critiques submitted by other users. In addition to the editorial control exerted by the community via the rating system, photoSIG itself also attempts to encourage high-quality critiques by only allowing critiques that conform to photoSIG's quality standard to affect a photographer's rating.

photoSIG opened to the public on December 7, 2001. It is the sister site to artSIG, but while artSIG covers all types of visual art, photoSIG deals exclusively with photography. Information on photoSIG can be found on wikipedia.com.
