Sony is encouraging Facebook users to participate in the company’s latest competition entitled ‘Profile Hero’ for a chance to win Sony NEX-5 camera or be awarded with the grand prize, a hilarious holiday of a lifetime in Rome. The participants are invited to share the most inspiring stills featuring the best moments of their lives by submitting their photos to five different categories.
People are invited to enter the competition with their profile pictures only. The contest is running for four weeks on popular social network (not it is in its third week, which is closing on December 16). Sony wants to give a chance to all of its fans, and that’s why the brand has created five image categories for UK Facebookers to enter. Of course, the only strict rule is that the images should be real photos and belong to the participant. To encourage the participants continue documenting their lives, Sony is giving away weekly prizes, the Sony NEX-5 cameras, to those whose profile pics will be most voted. The holder of the grand prize, a trip to the Italian capital, will be determined randomly.
Here are five categories to enter: Family Funster (people who like to spend their time in a family circle), Night Owl (those who prefer nights out), Portrait Poser (guys who don’t shy away from the camera and they look great close-up), Sports Star (action shots while doing sports), and finally Wordly wanderer (panoramic travel shots). Sony believes that any of Facebook resident’s profile pics will fit into these sections, and is waiting for more entries to arrive.
