Advantages: Waterproof. The lens has a cover. 640 x 480px video mode. Disadvantages: The camera does not float.
The Olympus Mju Tough-6010 looks deal for water sport practitioners, those who tend to get wet or just live under water. The picture quality is generally very good.
I've owned several Olympus cameras. The picture sharpness has always been great because of good quality optics.
The technical reviews state that there is a high speed mode that takes 5 shots per second with a resolution of tree megapixels the normal ?continuous mode? is stated to be too slow for taking multiple pictures of fast moving objects such as aircraft or downhill skiers.
The video quality is described as ?average? in most shooting conditions and not so good in changing conditions. Packing a lot of pixels in to a small area can result In noisy pictures. Usually the effect is only noticeable in very low light conditions. ...
Advantages: Easy to operate with one hand Disadvantages: Design covering tape window
As a self-employed worker, offering secretarial services from my home I had to purchase a multitude of equipment in order to be able to present the extent of services I do. One of the services I offer is audio typing, and for this reason I needed a reliable dictaphone, in order to play clients recordings and type them up.
Browsing through the Argos catalogue I saw the SanyoTRC-525M and as it was a reasonable price I decided to go for it, as I also knew the client I was audio typing for would be using the cassettes that fitted into this machine.
Once out of the small but sturdy cardboard box packaging, I was presented with the dictaphone, which resembled a neat little black brick. Its measurements are roughly 12cm x 7cm and about 2.5cm thick. This is an ideal shape and thickness to fit into the palm of your hand and be able to ...
Advantages: Good basic workhorse of dictaphone Disadvantages: Voice activation would be good
This Sanyo dictaphone does all it is asked of and it does it pretty well too! There are few bells and whistles and it is really quite basic but functional.
Voice activation would have been a good bonus but that costs extra, and for a budget dictaphone I reckon this is ok.
Clarity of recording is superb and the the buttons are large and easily used, there is little fiddling around to get the voice quality right and you just press and talk.
I realise many are going digital with these machines but our secrataries still prefer the tape machines for the clarity of diction afforded by these relatively cheap devices.
Battery life is good and after 1 year of a lot of recording, the original batteries are still working, there is an optional 3v DC input but I think that this is hardly necessary given the frugal nature of its power ...
