One of the perks of being among the influential persons in the world is being given gifts and courtesy visits. Now I did say gifts right? Well the Pope had one gift that should make most people envy, particularly the Sony camcorder addicts. Would you believe the Pope was given a Sony Camcorder (reportedly a Sony HDR-XR500V Handycam) by Taro Aso, the prime minister of Japan?

Yup, the Pope is now a proud owner of a Sony Handycam! So when you see the Pope some time soon carrying something additional, he may be capturing videos of the places he may be in with this new gift from the Japan PM.

Envious? Well considering the Pope happens to be among the influential and popular persons in the world, you shouldn’t be. Besides, look who gave it and where it came from!
