Somebody had to go and do it. This time, it's Sony. Sensing a void in the social network user's desktop, Sony announced the new Sony Net-sharing CAM, a pocket-sized camera targeted at video bloggers and social networkers who regularly upload photos/videos onto the web.

The Net-sharing CAM allows seamless uploads of short video clips, and even takes 5-megapixel still photos. At 5 oz, it's hardly noticeable in your pocket, measuring just 1 3/16" x 4 1/8" x 2 1/4".

The CAM can record up to 5 hours of web-ready video on a 2GB Memory Stick PRO Duo card, in MPEG4 format. Picture qualities range from QVGA/15fps to VGA/30fps (viewable on TV). A sharemark button allows you to tag the videos that you want to upload.

Pre-loaded with Portable software, you can directly publish videos to Crackle and other video sharing sites. The camera includes a built-in flash, 4x digital zoom and a 2.4" LCD screen. A Li-ion battery powers it up (expect 90 minutes of battery life).

Priced at US $200, the Sony Net-sharing CAM will be available online on Sony Style and in retail locations.

The cameras make use of Sony’s face detection and Super Steady Shot image stabilization. The H9 model will include NightShot technology to allow capture with practically no light. Viewing in high-definition is possible in the best clarity and color with the HD outputs and a separately sold vmc-mhc1 high-definition component cable. In camera editing functions are possible, so there is no need for a PC. The DSC-H9 and DSC-H7 cameras will be available in April for about $480(H9) and $400(H7).

Sony's new T-series cameras are powered by the Bionz(TM) processing engine to deliver the fast image processing speeds needed to produce color-rich, detailed pictures. The T100 features a Carl Zeiss 5x optical zoom lens and 8MP picture resolution. The camera is less than a half inch this and has a 3in large display screen to make in-camera editing easy and fast.

As a warm-up to the big PMA show coming up very soon, Sony has unleashed a flurry of new digital cameras, with the most notable of the bunch being the Sony Cybershot G1. Although the price has not yet been revealed, the specs have.

The G1 features 2GB of internal memory, which is actually quite shocking considering most cams these days skimp on the internal, forcing you to buy a SD card. Another nice feature is the camera's large 3.5-inch LCD display. It also has a 6-megapixel resolution, 3x optical zoom, built-in WiFi, SteadyShot, Anti-Blur, and a Carl Zeiss Vario-Tesar lens. All in all the Sony G1 looks like a pretty sweet digital camera!
