The size of the camera is unbelievable, and it’s so light! Everyone who sees it comments on its cute size (its just 4 x 6.8 x 8.6 cm!), and good quality videos and still images. The resolution is 3.1 megapixels so its not something you’d rely on for a wedding or other important event, but is great to have and take videos and pics of friends.

It took me just a few minutes to learn how to use it, and all my friends know how to use it too! That’s how EASY it is!

They are quickly and easily uploaded onto a computer, although the editing software is not the best, so I generally don’t use that. It can also be viewed on TV using the A/V cable supplied.

It is very handy to keep in your bag or pocket, and I take it with me everywhere!
I have invested in rechargeable batteries though, as they tend to last around an hour at most. I plan on getting a larger SD memory card as well as I use it so much! Taking low resolution photos and videos is no problem for me as the content is mainly of my friends making idiots of themselves, but if 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!
