I Mustek more pictures!

Advantages: size and features
Disadvantages: blurry images in video mode when you move the camera

...a very small device – what do you expect for this price?? The beauty of the camera is that you can shoot spontaneous video, replay it immediately (with sound) on the reasonable quality LCD screen, then keep it on memory to load onto to your PC, watch it on your TV or delete it immediately. Blimey! What a lot for your dosh. I also spent some time loading MP3 music tracks onto the Mustek DV5000 from my PC (this is just a matter of opening the relevant windows and dragging and dropping). They play via the external speaker (which isn’t very loud) or the headphones (supplied) which is fine. We will continue to play with this amazing little device for some time yet and I will add any new thoughts to this review as and when they occur. Oh and incidently, you know all this fuss about Pendrives, Jumpdrives etc? Well you can drag...

Review of Mustek DV 5000

Mustek DV3000 Compact Digital Camera.

Advantages: Small, Light andCHEAP!
Disadvantages: Fidily, Bad zoom, Not enough memory.

...The video recording on the DV3000 is nat the best in the world. In natrual light (outside) the camera can see everything you can but inside the colours tend to go into a orange/red blur. It has three diffrent video modes, OK quality, GOOD quality and NIGHT mode. OK quality mode is great for recording things like bike riding and things that don't move very fast. But when you record things that tend to go faster than 15mph then the camera can keep up with it and it goes into a blur or somtimes the lense can't see it because it is going to fast. One good thing about this is that you can record for about 15 minutes at one time. GOOD quality mode is the best mode on the camera as it uses 3.1 mega pixels. In this mode you can record things like F1 car races and skiing, basicly just things that go more than 15mph. Also in this mode you...

Mustek DV 3032-tiny camera, not so tiny price

Advantages: small, lightweight, easy to use, decent resolution
Disadvantages: TOO small, too expensive, not true "video" camera

....00 for this camera, supposedly the wholesale price, in a vain attempt to list it on StormPay auctions to make a profit. I have since found these all over the net for $77 and less. For $77, it is totally worth it. For $98, plus shipping, no. This camera has no flash. That is the point at which I really wished I had never seen this camera. 99% of my photos are taken inside a house or building, and many times it is too dark for 35mm photos to come out properly. Hence the need for a digital camera with flash. But, this camera doesn't have one. It does, however, have a night shot option, which I have used and it actually works as well, if not better, than conventional flashes. The Mustek DV3032 features a three-setting resolution feature. When you turn the camera on, it starts out in the medium resolution, which is 1280 X 960. You have to hit...

Review of Mustek DV 3000

A mixed bag when compared with dv4000

Advantages: Price, Features, AA Baterries
Disadvantages: Picture quality is not accurate to what you see on preview screen

...I have owned both the Mustek DV-5000 and it's predecessor the Mustek DV-4000. The main difference in the 2 is that the dv5000 can take AA batteries, so you can make sure you have battery wherever you are, and also the dv5000 has a flash. When i read about the dv5000 coming out i couldn;t wait to try it, I got it about 1 week after release for £109, as it seemed to have all the features the dv4000 was missing. After replacing my broken dv4000 (the story is in my dv4000 review) with the dv5000: here is my take on the dv5000: Pros: AA Batteries - So you never run out Flash - great for night time Higher Megapixel - Better Quality Pictures Mp3 playback is good through the external speaker Cons: The image you see on the preview window, while lining up a shot is NOT what the camera actually takes. With the dv5000...

Great Compact Camera

Advantages: Great video & sound quality
Disadvantages: Poor stills

...Before buying the Mustek DV 5000, I'd considered many other options of video camera, namely those that used mini-DV tapes. However, having done some research on the internet, I found that my PC wasn't compatible with that type of camera. Then I came across the Mustek DV 5000. It had a good product description, looked like it had a wide range of features and was a very reasonable price. Best of all, it was compatible with my old laptop (I'm now on a newer one). I can't quite remember where I bought it from, some online electronics retailer, but when I received it what shocked me was how tiny it was! In fact, I thought it looked more like a toy camera than a piece of electronic equipment. This was a year ago, and I've used the camera on numerous occasions since and I think it's really great - good, clear videos, average stills...

  Mini Movie Maker

Advantages: Relatively inexpensive, Very easy to use
Disadvantages: Not the best quality (2.0 mega pixels), Limited features

...Before I start I'll clarify that the Digital Camcorder 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 of handbag sized... as in, about the same size as 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...

Review of Mustek DV 2000

HP Pavilion dv5

Advantages: Good quality laptop, great appearance
Disadvantages: Games are a no-no.

...A well designed, high quality affordable laptop, the HP pavilion dv5 doesn't fail to please in looks, performance or price. In terms of look and design, flashy is a good word for it. It has a glossy black case which shines in the light, then you open it. The keyboard-surround is split horizontally: the bottom half is very light silver with a white check pattern, and the upper half perforated silver plastic. Around the edge of the laptop, there is a chrome-effect strip which sparkles and shimmers. Even the mouse pad has a finish that is so reflective you can see your face in it. This is the 'bling-bling' of the laptop world. It also feels pretty solid, I don't think you would be able to break it easily and I have faith in it's durability and robustness. It is also quite light, weighing 2.65kg, not bad for a laptop it's size. Ok...

Review of HP Pavilion dv5

A fantastic buy

Advantages: Compact, Great picture quality, Great image processing.
Disadvantages: Doesn't take AA batteries, you have to recharge the cam's battery.

...just the right amount of contact for the cam to work. Apart from the battery cover, the rest of the cam is really sturdy, and lasted me thru 2 years of holidays and festivals. I finally broke mine at Download rock festival last year, but i was watching Korn and Slipknot at the front while getting crushed in the crowd. Overall the cam is pretty tough, but not as durable as the average mobile phone. If you buy this (which i highly recommend) Take care when removing the battery cover, and treat the cam with respect, be careful you don;t sit on it when it's in your pocket, and don;t tae it into a heavy metal concert! Overall: Amazing camera, amazing price. after getting the dv5000 to replace my broken cam, i have decided to go back to the dv4000 cause it's by far the best mustek cam i've tried....
