Sony unveils new PSP camera

Sony Computer Entertainment has announced that a new camera accessory for the PlayStation Portable will launch across Europe on May 16, priced at GBP 34.99 / EUR 49.99.

Go!Cam will allow users to capture film footage and still images, and features a built-in microphone for recording audio. It will come bundled with Go!Edit software for editing photos, videos and audio clips on the PSP. Go! Edit will also allow users to upload their work to the Internet.

''Go!Cam is fantastic news for all those PSP owners looking for something new, fun and creative," said PSP marketing manager Stephane Hareau.

"With summer around the corner and the ability to turn your PSP into a mini camcorder and capture all the best moments in your life, this is yet another reason to get a PSP and to take advantage of truly portable entertainment. It demonstrates yet again the potential, versatility and evolving nature of PSP.''
