Worth the money

Review Date: August 19, 2005

I have this gadget for a couple of weeks now. I am using it with a 1GB card which gives me 2 1/2 hours of video recording in 640x480 mode with ones set of rechargeable batteries. I used it on the dashboard of my car, using it handheld while riding my bicycle. Yes, the resolution and frames per second is not high quality. It needs quite a bit of light. Outside on a sunny day is perfect. The faster the objects are moving the more blurrs.

But it gives family and friends a good idea of what I want to show.

MP3 worked without a flaw and the still pictures outperformed my 2 megapixel camera. Also the Webcam feature worked great. While connected to USB it gets the power from the computer. Much better picture than the Logitech Webcam I have. Too bad that the DV5900 has no optical zoom. The digital zoom just reduces the resolution. Up to 2x the resolution is acceptable.

Only 4 stars because I really want the video in better quality. But for what I got the money is right.

Great little camera

I bought this for my 14 year old son. He wanted a camera that also took decent video. After researching lots of brands, I purchased this small camera/camcorder (it fits in the palm of your hand). He loves it. The pictures are better than my Hp camera and he recently was in Godspell and my video camera wasn't working, so I recorded an one hour+ performance (we bought a bigger memory card)with no problem. Some of the video was blurry, but that was because I was over 100 feet from the stage and using the zoom with no tripod - but overall, great. It really is very easy to use, and takes great pictures. My son is looking forward to recording our trip to Rome this Summer with his new camera. I highly recommend this for beginners!

Fun and easy

I got this for my 12 year old son. He took right to it and uses it almost every day, he uses it indoors and out and it is holding up well to his skateboarding antics. It was very easy for him to learn to use and he also showed his friends how to use it. He is having a lot of fun with it. We use the lithium batteries and after about a month they havent run down yet.

Absolutely awesome

I got this camera for my birthday from my dad. The price was awesome at Amazon! I love the fact that it can play music that I rip from my CDs. It has a very clear picture quality. Also, the zooming feature is great. Last but not least, it has a very clear voice recorder. If you want a great camera for a kid buy this camera!

Great Deal and Well Worth the Money

what amazed me as soon as i opened the box was how small this camcorder is about the size of a woman's hand. it came complete with tripod stand, carrying strap, carrying case, software CD, cables and even batteries.

The software is easy to install and has all you will need for viewing and editing your pictures or video.

the viewing area for this camcorder is small(like the product itself) but is surprisingly easy to view. it comes with a 4x zoom that you have to see to believe. there both manual and auto focus on the camera as well as settings for indoors, outdoors and low light. the cam comes with a built in light that does a remarkable job for such a small cam.

the pictures and video are great and with a 1 gig card you have all the room you could possibly need. the features on this are so numerous that i can not list them all. following along with the instruction manual is the best way to learn how to use this cam properly. it comes with both a full manual and quick use guide. trying to "wing" it is possible because this camera is so easy to use but you will likely miss out on many of the great functions that are available.

everyone that i have shown this product to was amazed at the quality of the cam and the low price. this is one great deal and i suggest impossible to pass up.

many digital camera's that are much more money only take clips and do not capture better pictures than this cam.

in summary i highly recommend this camcorder, you can not go wrong with it :)
