Advantages: Small, light and compact Disadvantages: doesn't have a flash
I was given the Pencam Compact for christmas one year and have enjoyed many moments of crazy photo taking!
The pencam is so small and efficient, you could fit it in your handbag or in your pocket easily and what's more you can take it absolutely anywhere.
You can use the pencam as a digital camera, digital camcorder or a pc camera.
It is ideal for taking pictures to send over the Internet, for example, taking pictures of products on ebay, or just family pictures you want to send.

Ciao members have rated this review on average: very helpful Review of Aiptek PenCam Compact
Advantages: Great budget camera, very good picture quality for age/price. Disadvantages: Not manufactured anymore. See review for details of others.
This is a webcam from the German manufacturers " AIPTEK ". Not a company I had heard of when I received this as an unwanted gift.
A little history about the company from their site.
http://www.aiptek.com.tw/
1997: AIPTEK were founded in the Hsin-Chu city in Taiwan.
2000: AIPTEK created the World's 1st PenCam
2001: We introduced World's No.1 Point-&-Shot DV.
2002: We were awarded the iF Design Award for our Network Camera, ANC6000(W)
2003: We announced our first IPO.
So what will it do for me? I hear you ask well, in essence this is a webcam only, and thus you will not be using it as a digital camera, but along with Windows movie maker you can capture videos with it (640 x 480 Pixels, 704 x 576 Pixels). However the supplied CD software will only allow capture of single framed pictures.
PACKAGING ...
Advantages: very small and compact Disadvantages: seems a bit fragile
I am writing an opinion about the aiptek pocket dv 11 but as this and the aiptek pocket dv are more or less the same and i could not add the specific product i thought i would do it here
I have recently aquired one of the dv 11 from america and it arrived safely but i would warn anyone who gets it shipped over there is a £40.00 surcharge when it gets here for vat so whatever the price is in us dollars add $60.00 to it and this will be payable before they hand over the package
The camcorder and all the software cost $149 plus $36 for shipping and $50 for the smart card which was quite cheap £153 but then you add the $60.00 as well and it cost £193 which is still a reasonable price with all that is on offer
right the dv 11
this is a camcorder,digital camera,voice recorder and a webcam all in one
The dv11 fits into ...
