Old Sony Devices

[SoThankful]

I enjoy taking photos and videos with older devices to capture a more vintage look. Someone who recently passed away left me their old Sony camera, but it didn’t come with the USB cable. While I can replace it, it’s not one of those cables most people have on hand.


As a workaround for now, I remove the Memory Stick and insert it into my PSP, which lets me view the photos more clearly or transfer them to my computer. It’s kind of great that my PSP has gained another practical use, and I think it’s really cool how interconnected they are.


Do you guys still use old Sony devices, or have any fun or quirky experiences like this?

The PSP and PS Vita cameras really have a great vibe. I usually take photos of my cat with the PS Vita, and they turn out really cool.

Good one! I can use the PSP's camera itself too. Gonna try to use it a little more.

I use this dream machine radio clock on my nightstand. one of my favorite devices.

I remember some time ago seeing professional photographers using the PSP and the Game Boy Color — everyday scenes and cars, all of them really cool. So if you ever take an epic photo, I’d love to see it.

I still have a Sony Walkman though the cassette player is long busted the AM/FM radio receiver is still working. It’s really quite handy during power outages whenever there’s a typhoon here.

Also there’s this PSP in perfect running condition that I have to change the battery almost year after year.

I have a Walkman and a couple of Sony Ericssons.

I'm still blown away by the quality those measly mid-aughts cameras were able to pull.

I have a Watchman but it's more of a paperweight than anything I will use. Still, keep it around because it's neat. Also found an entire Vaio computer that I forgot about, upstairs in the extra bedroom. Probably circa 2002 or so, if I had to guess? I haven't had time to hook it up yet.

Thanks for sharing, looks nice. The smiski likes it too (I only know what that is because of my friend ).
