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.

Building on the immense success of the Nikon D3 Professional D-SLR camera, the D700 offers pro-level performance and an extensive array of features and innovations in a comfortably nimble platform. Nikons flagship FX and DX-format cameras, the D3 and D300 respectively, established new benchmarks for Digital image quality, speed, and unmatched ISO performance. The D700 maintains this new measure with exceptional overall image quality, broad tonal range and depth, and extremely low noise throughout its native ISO range of 200 to 6400.
