You always know where you are with Sony -- at least you will with the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX5. It's a 10.1-megapixel compact camera that packs GPS and a compass, as well as shooting high-definition video.
GPS is totally becoming a thing in the photography world: other GPS snappers include the Samsung ST1000 and Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ10.
The HX5 packs a 25mm wide-angle lens, equivalent to a 35mm camera. It also includes image stabilisation and an automatic self-portrait mode. Meanwhile, Sony continues to embrace the SD card, with the HX5 supporting Sony's own Memory Stick and SD cards.
We gave the HX5 a run round the block at camera show Focus on Imaging this week. Click 'Continue' to see GPS, compass and panorama mode in perfect harmony. We'll even tell you the price.

If the clips are being saved in AVCHD format the .mts files will probably be buried in a random folder (maybe called private) and not in the same folder as the stills.
