Mustek DV 3000

Advantages: Small, Light andCHEAP!
Disadvantages: Fidily, Bad zoom, Not enough memory.

The video recording on the DV3000 is nat the best in the world. In natrual light (outside) the camera can see everything you can but inside the colours tend to go into a orange/red blur. It has three diffrent video modes, OK quality, GOOD quality and NIGHT mode. OK quality mode is great for recording things like bike riding and things that don't move very fast. But when you record things that tend to go faster than 15mph then the camera can keep ...
...somtimes the lense can't see it because it is going to fast. One good thing about this is that you can record for about 15 minutes at one time. GOOD quality mode is the best mode on the camera as it uses 3.1 mega pixels. In this mode you can record things like F1 car races and skiing, basicly just things that go more than 15mph. Also in this mode you can capture things in more detail.But when recording inside thing tend to go black so you can't see ... Read review

I wanted a video camera, and expected to be getting one that was big, bulky and cost me an arm and a leg. Then this little fella came along, and i new it was a super gadget.

Advantages: portable, durable, good value
Disadvantages: no flash, relies entirely on removable media

...astonishingly, there it was, the Mustek DV3000, i thought the price was amazing - a 3.1megapixel digital video camera that can also take stills and record audio, plugs into the tv as well as USB on your computer, i had to have it, i can't disclose the site due to regs on ciao, but it only cost me just over £90 including delivery from the site. (if you want the site, you'd have to contact me. after the camera arrived, i thought i had best read the ...
...a quick peek at it first, it is so easy to use, i haven't even touched the manual once yet. the software was easy to install on my computer, and the camera was easy to set up. the 32MB MMC (multi media card) that came with it was easy to put in and it holds more than enough high resolution pictures for my needs. i did however, find that when taking stills, the camera would seriously benefit from having a flash, as many of you may know it is often ...

Advantages: Small compact and very light. good value for money
Disadvantages: No flash, not rechargeable, only 2x zoom

Good quality pictures when used outside, even when zoomed in the pictures are still good enough even tho the quality setting automatically switches to low when using the zoom. However, when using inside in artificial light the colour seems to go orangey/red. The night mode facility helps but then any movement causes a blurred photo. AS for the video function, again same light problem as the pictures. Video quality is generally very good on high quality ...
...of video on high quality you will need to invest in a fairly high capacity memory card (1GB = around £50) and you should be able to then video over an hours worth on high quality. On low quality the picture is a bit choppy but is not too bad if your filming something that doesnt require you to move the camera around a lot. As for the zoom this is fairly poor really. You can only zoom in and out while not recording. This as a pain because this mean ... Read review

Advantages: small, easy to use, good quality, inexpensive
Disadvantages: drains battery life like most cameras, software not brilliant, no flash

...it’s the quality you want, it may be worth a larger 64mb or 128mb Multimedia or SD card. There is no flash, and the quality in dim light is pretty bad, however, other than that, its really cool and my Mustek DV3000 is one of my proudest possessions! ... Read review
