Oooo interesting! I wonder if the camcorder is any good, and how much it usually retails for?

find in uk on google ?

It's about £50's worth of camera.

Thanks OP - I need a policy for this cat which forcibly 'adopted' us a few months ago, and my son would appreciate a camcorder to play with, so I'm happy!

Ah sorry!! I forgot to check if it was a dupe.....

According to google shopping, only 2 places in UK - one £92 one £65

The camcorder is European spec. and different to the BC version sold in USA. Main difference is that you can't record to the 32MB internal memory as this is all used by the operating system, so an SD card is needed. It will take 8MP still images as opposed to 5MP on the BC version.

Hope this helps.

Do not need either life or pet insurance, but willing to get just for the cam.

Any ideas whats the cheapest policy as I do not own a pet, a hamster/gerbil cheapest?!

edit: weird thing is searching for the Polaroid DVG-720 on google images I get a totally different HD cam then the one tesco show.
