Includes a 23 cm stand (not ...

There is a small microphone in the base of the camera that is very good quality and is very useful on msn with voice conversations.The camera costs around £70, but it hasn't gone down in price a lot since I bought one (about a year ago). It is a good camera, but it is slightly on the expensive side so it is only good if you want a really ...
