Advantages: Relatively inexpensive, Very easy to use Disadvantages: Not the best quality (2.0 mega pixels), Limited features
...I am reviewing is the Mustek DV2032 - as far as I am aware this is just the newer model of the DV2000 therefore I'm hoping the review is in the right category!
I've never really been into camcorders, but whilst recently volunteering to do a media activity at the school I work at the IT technician handed to me the latest toy she'd aquired for the school - the Mustek DV2032. I was expecting this digicamcorder I'd heard staff talk about to be kind ... ...a handbag. Little did I expect that the camera would quite easily fit into a handbag... or a most pockets come to that!
If or when you do want to download your clips and photos to your computer, you just connect the USB cable provided to your computer and the camera acts like a mass storage device. There's an SD card in the camera and the computer reads the files straight from it. You can then copy the files into a folder on your computer, or again ...

Advantages: Great for its price Disadvantages: Not the best quality DVCam
Money... that's all anyone seems to care about these days. It's all about money and the latest gadgets. Fortunately, both of these combine in this small and handy digital video camera from Mustek!
It's easy to use, and so small it's almost toylike, so you can easily fit the DV cam in a pocket, smaller still than a normal camera. It runs off USB, and takes still pictures as well as digital video with sound, at quite an impressive quality. For the ... ...still digital camera!
The memory with the camera is relatively small in terms of filming, a mere six minutes, but large in terms of pictures - at a recent gig I managed to get no less than 94 photos of the band, and about 60 of those were good quality.
The quality is the only bad point of this camera, since for still photos the camera has to be just that... extremely still. Otherwise all you will end up with is a blur.
On the other hand, the digital ...

Advantages: A cheap, pocket sized alternative to a clumpy expensive video camera Disadvantages: Very small almost toy looking, limited sized view screen
My requirements were a small video camera with a view screen that would not break the bank and that is exactly what I got. I brought this as a gift for my boyfriend and he loves it. My ititial opinion of it was that it was too small and the plastic casing was toy looking almost. However once the power was turned on it proved that it has the quaility to deliver a good picture and various different options. The camera can be used for recording, playback ... ...thorugh the flip screen and downloaded onto either a pc or video. Looking through the screen does seem strange as is it is quite small so if what your looking for is a camera that while you are viewing what your filming gives you a wide screen view then this is not for you, and also the images and colours can be quite dark. However playback and downloads are of good quality. This camera is so small, ladies you can carry it it your handbags! It also ...
