My boyfriend has got the one on the Woolworths site and he seems happy with it. It only takes 40 minutes of film before you have to transfer it to a disc or to your computer. You will need a USB port to use this.

Oh I must say though, he bought his for £17 from Superdrug so maybe it's worth shopping around a bit.

thanks for that, but that might be a little short for a holiday wouldnt it? can another card go in, like adigital camera??

I dont think you could use it on holiday. Depends how much filming you want to do. You could buy another memory card but that will only take you up to about an hour of film.

There are some proper video camera on sale for around £100 at the moment, they might not be the newest type and use the old svhs tapes, but in my experance you will get a lot better quility and more time using one of them, as all these so called "Digital Video Camera" are very cheaply made and are effctivly a normal digital camera in a diffrent shell!

Thanks Tom :-)
