Sony Cybershot DSC-T500 digital camera that does more than capture lovely looking still images – it is also able to record video in both wide and full-screen mode at 720p at 30 frames per second. In addition, this 10 megapixel shooter allows one to zoom in while recording, and is equally at home for high sensitivity shooting for natural or low light conditions.

The Sony DSC-T500 will rely on a Memory Stick media card to store all your photos and videos recorded, where a 16GB capacity Memory Stick is able to hold hours of digital memories. I don’t really like the cap Sony imposed on the DSC-T500 though, allowing each video clip to be up to 10 minutes’ in length only, which means you’ve got to learn how to space out your video recordings accordingly. Well, at least that’s what the press release led me to believe. One good point of the DSC-T500 is its ability to capture still images despite being in video recording mode, ensuring you won’t miss out on even a single moment while fiddling with mode switching.

The Sony DSC-T500 will ship sometime later next month for approximately $400.
