Summary: Not Impressed
Review: I am very disappointed in this item. Photos have a strange hue that can't be eliminated with photo software. And yes, the zoom is impressive through the camera, but once you have recorded and look at your video, it is a blurry mess. It is also difficult to learn how to use and you have to teach yourself, because the owners manual is terrible.

Summary: Awesome, Tiny Little Cam that'll Blow You AWAY!!!
Review: I received this camera for Christmas and it's completely awesome. I'm just a teenager, but I think it really deserves 5 stars. First of all, I was surprised by the quality of the video. This is no mini-DV camera or anything, but it does have full-motion video, a great microphone, and decent picture quality. I bring it to school and film stuff blowing up in Chemistry class (hehehe!), use the MP3 player mode while mowing lawns, and I take photos of, well, anything. Even thought there's no flash, the lens is sensitive enough for most pictures. The lens is no 4.0 megapixels, though, and the quality only looks good at around 1024x768 resolution, which is not bad for a video cam.
I don't know what everyone is complaining about. If you want a real fancy, high quality camera then don't buy this. Period. But if you want one to take everywhere that it's not the end of the world if it breaks, then YES!! This is the camera for you. Just purchase a 128MB MMC or SD card and you'll be taking video for about 45 minutes before plugging into the computer.
I use this camera for making movies, too, using Apple's iMovie on my Macintosh iBook, but beware!! You're going to need something like EasyX Video Converter for 30$ to convert the ASF files to MPEG to use on ANY video editing tool. I found this out the hard way :( But 30$ isn't too hefty, considering the cam is only 170$ or so.

The bottom line: Want a Good Camera? Buy a 1,000$ one. Want one to take Everywhere, or for kids/teens that if it possibly breaks it's not 1,000 dollars down the drain then GET THIS!! (just remember: EasyX Video Converter for 30$, and I found converting to MPEG1 works best on iMovie/QuickTime)

Summary: Other Alternatives
Review: I've owned the MUSTEK DV 3000, and 4000 for only about a week for each. The reason why I returned them both was due to their lack of quality images and video quality. Don't be fooled by the advertisements that say these produce at 3 OR 4 Mega Pixel resolution. They are both only 2-2.1 CMOS Mega Pixels with special hardware interpolation that makes them appear larger in size, but by no means does it make the picture better! A 2 mega pixel camera isn't bad but the reason why both the Mustek cameras suck with quality is due to their CMOS Sensor. A CCD Sensor produces much better quality photos and video but with that comes a higher price. Their are new small dv camcorders coming out all which have CCD sensors and some that are already out that have all the features in these cameras plus alot more. The Samsung Itcam 5,7,9...the Fisher Fvd-C1...you all should look into...thou they may be more expensive 300-600(used and new on ebay). Your getting a 512mb card with the fisher camera and a 2gb harddrive with the samsung dv cams. Which is more for your money I think. Peace!

Summary: BlaH!! Fun to play with at first, bad in the long run!!
Review: This camera really suprised me when i first played with it. It's light, small, and has many great features...but after 3 days i relized it's old age crap.

While it may fit on the palm of your hand, it can easily slip and fall, because there is no strap. The buttons aren't suitable for mp3, because there is no external button for adjusting the volume when you need to. The picture quality is ok when there is alot of light in the room, but when the room is dimmed or there is no light, you wouln't be able to record anything even with the night shot on. Same goes for webcam mode.

One good thing i did like is you can listen to mp3's without headphones by using the speakers, but it won't be that loud. Also the microphone mode is decent. Its clear when i play it back, but you will hear some choppy sounds if you press any buttons while recording, because the mic is very sensitive up close.

I think you should wait until something better that comes out and save your money. Don't support crap like this, even though it may be unqie, it was made for cheap people who won't spend money for something better.

Summary: Mustek DV4000 Disappointment
Review: This was a gift that broke 3 days after I received it, before I even got to learn the product. And because it was purchased out of town I had to deal with Mustek myself, Tech support is very hard to get with this company I was on hold for literally hours and then they give you the run around. Of course they couldn't make it easy, after all it was meant for a vacation I will be taking shortly. BE WARE of this company. I would not recommend buting anything from them. I will be sure to tell all my friends, and for them to tell all of their friends of this very unpleasant situation.

Summary: jack of all trades expert at none.....
Review: i bought this camera mainly for taking snaps of things i sell on ebay i had a kodak 3800 digital camera but the thing is it did not have was a macro facility, which i needed to get really close up shots of rings, to show the details, well let me put it this way after taking pictures using the macro mode my wife said there is no difference to the pictures when i used my kodak without the macro facility, they were all blurred. at night when using it under normal house lighting everything looks pink even a new white sink, the finish quality of the camera could be its only good feature, for in a few years as old tin plate toys go up in value so should the tin body of this camera.
