From 15 November to 15 December 2013, members of the public who own the Sony Xperia Z1 are eligible to submit their most innovative jump shots on Instagram, together with the hashtags #JumpWithSony and #SGXperiaZ1. All entries will be judged based on the level of creativity reflected in the image, as well as its accompanying caption. Winners of the Instagram Challenge will be announced via Sony Mobile SG Facebook page on 18 December 2013.
The elegant, 5” Xperia Z1 takes shooting with a smartphone to a whole new level by including an innovative set of Xperia Camera Applications that deliver new experiences. One of such Applications at launch is Timeshift burst to capture the perfect shot every time – Xperia Z1 takes 61 images in two seconds – a second before and after pressing the shutter – so users can scroll back and forth to find the perfect image.
