Thanks to our good friends at Sony, one lucky Hot Press reader will be chosen as our official Xperia™ photographer...

We’re giving one talented technophile the chance to experience the world of rock'n'roll through the lens of the water resistant and NFC-enabled Sony Xperia™ Z, a terribly nifty snapping tool that’s perfect for capturing those thrilling musical moments – beginning with this summer’s biggest music weekender.

Once the winner has been chosen by an esteemed panel of judges, they’ll receive a Sony Xperia™ Z with 13 MegaPixel camera to experiment with, and be invited to photograph an exciting live show at one of the major venues in Dublin city.

The lucky snapper will then join team Hot Press at Electric Picnic, where they’ll head out and about with their Sony Xperia™ Z, capturing the acts, the punters, the action in the Hot Press chat room, and whatever else attracts the attention of their 13 MegaPixel camera!

And when it’s all over, the winner’s Xperia™ festival moments will get their own double page spread in Hot Press, beginning what we hope will be a long-term involvement with Hot Press as one of our roving photographic reporters.

August 15 is the closing date.
