I bought the Kodak Mc3 player becausei wanted a cheap (ish) digital camera/video camera to take on my Duke of Edinburgh expiditions that i didnt have to worry about getting broken/lost too much and it certainly did its job.
It came with a 16mb memory card which gives you about 5 mins video recording time and about 50 photos on the high quality setting and 10 mins recording time and 100 photos on the lower quality setting. I later bought a 32mb card as the 16mb filled up very quickly.
I understand that the Mc3 is supposed to have a MP3 function but i have never worked out how to use it, the instructions that came with the camera are very minimal and not as helpful as they could be, further instructions can be found on the kodak website but i have still not founf out how to use the music function yet!
The camera and video recorder dont favour dark, low light area and its best to use the camera outside or in bright light to get the most out of your footage/pictures.
Its really easy to transfer images/footage to your computer with the little base that the camera slots into, but beware- it uses up battery when its doing this so you cant transfer things when the battery has run out. Rechargable batteries are a good idea with the Kodak Mc3 to ensure you dont run out of power.
So to wrap it all up its a great camera for mucking around, making little films, using on the beach/ countryside without constantly worrying about. its easy to use and the screen on the back means you can watch back your films/photos straight away! great value for money!
