I recently read about this Video camcorder online. I saw it on sale for $99.99

It's a very sweet deal. Supposedly, the camera comes with:

MODEL: DXG-506V
Video Recording
Still Images at 5.1 mp
Mp3 (only) player
Voice Recorder
*Web Cam

I already have a digital camera (SONY) that takes really good pictures, okay video, and such. But, in the past year...mines been malfunctioning a lot.....like, whenever I turn the power on for picture mode, it DIES. But when I turn the power on for the viewing mode, it WORKS.

I looked up how much it would cost to fix the camera since i love it so much...but it's nearly ~$200. I spent $350 on this damn camera and it nearly cost as much as that to fix it???? NO DEAL.

So anyways, this camera just sort of stood out...since i'm THROUGH WITH SONY CAMERAS! I was wonderfing if any of you have heard of it, owned it...whatever...and what are you opinions about it. THanks.

I think my friend has that one. It seemed like it took pretty good video and while she wasn't able to control the Mp3 function because she was a retard, the fact that it took SD was quite appealing. (I say that because a 2 gig SD card is like 50 bucks)

Nonetheless, I wasn't able to see the pictures when they were uploaded, so I would only be ASSUMING when i say that they were good. The video playback looked really, really good though. I'll give it that...

EDIT: Man I can't find any non-bias reviews for this thing. No wonder you're asking in soompi...X_x. 100 sounds a lil too good to be true.


Sigged for life.

it really is just $99.99

Anyways, I recently just bought it and played around with it. It takes a lot of batteries...4 AAA...i guess i preferred the 2 AA like the sony...ahhaha, i don't like to change much.

But everything else is okay. The video wasn't the best, but is way better than a digital camera. THe only thing about the still images was the fact that...the flash isn't very good. At least, when compared to my Sony pictures...Sony's pictures were more vibrant. But the pictures are still nice.

Mp3 is awesome, webcam is awesome, etc. Overall...i think it's a good thing for that price...since digitals these days are like $300+++
