I got one of these nifty little things for christmas a few years ago, and its just been the best little gadget I've owned since. Not only does it take pictures, but it records movies WITH SOUND and plays mp3's!!!!!! :)

1. The camera mode!
Well it takes great pictures, and its fantastic for just having around and snapping away with! The picture quality is pretty good, but watch out for blurring, it blurrs rather easilly when you jolt it, but so do most Digicams :) and the little LCD screen on the back allows you to see the pictures so you know what you've got :D!

2. Video mode!
You can have a great time making mini movies of anything and everything with this gadget, and having the sound on is great. Its so easy to use! But if you want to make bigger movies, invest in a larger Compact Flash memory card. The one that comes with it is a 16mb which can hold around 120 photos or around 5-10 minutes of movie.

3. MP3 Player!
Yes it does play Mp3's :) there are two that come with it and are rather cheesy, but who cares! By using the little dock thats provided, you can plug into your computer, and using the software (which works for both Mac AND Pc), you can transfer what you want. The music sounds a bit tinny on the small speaker, but thats only whats to be expected on a speaker of that size. Works great with headphones too :)

The install CD comes with various programmes, Quicktime is one which lets you play the mp3's and movies on (which by the way are in Mpg format) and you can also look at your photos :)


I do recomend this nifty little camera (which is oh so easy to use too!) because it'll give you hours of fun, for a decent low price!!! :)

Sounds more useful than the average digicam with the mp3 facility.

Never tried the MP3 thing. How much, I wonder.
