The Pocket DV2 camcorder from Aiptek really is a little gem.
~~~~~~~~
Introduction
~~~~~~~~
I have never owned, and very rarely used, a camcorder before this one, which I acquired about a month ago. But even I can see that this isn’t a standard sort of camera.
The obvious difference from a standard camcorder is size. This one fits snugly into the palm of my hand. Dimensions are a miniscule 8cm tall, 8cm deep (front to back) and only 4cm ... ...left-handers to use. The Aiptek logo is on the back of the LCD screen, and is quite discreet, much like the whole camera.

...your computer.
Another feature Aiptek have forgotten to put on is the Flash. This is really annoying because if your not in broad daylight you cant take good pictures!

I would advise that you fork out the extra cash for a better camera.
