EL Chepo Mini DV to Try

Ordered a mini DV a week ago, and just arrived today. Its a small cam, not HD but WVGA 640 x 480 I think. Anyway its cheap, to the point that I won't disclose the price.

Its a small camera about 4 inches in length, build in battery and used micro SD card which is not included. I wonder what they mean by "Share with him the exciting moment !"

Front of the camera, with plastic protective lens to make it slightly water resistant. I don't think its water proof, splashproof maybe.

Rear cover once unscrewed revealed a mini USB, ON/OFF switch, Micro SD Slot and the warranty sticker.

Close up of same.

There is a hole on the rear cap, so that's so much for waterproofiness. Maybe I can plug it with silastic.

Record button, indicator light and could it be a reset hole in front of the play/pause button, these I need to explore more to find out. It need charging, a micro SD and I need to read the manual.


Additional note : That small hole is the mic

These are the goodies that comes with it. Driver CD, Printed Manual, Wall Charger with USB out, USB Cable, Car Power outlet to USB converter, Travel Plug to use the Wall Charger and Car Mount accessories.

Do a quickie mount on my scooter with bicycle clamp.

Not bad, just a bit far to see those LED indicator lights. I use one of the SYM fairing screw ad attachment point, so its easy for installation this type of camera. A HD version should be good.

Not bad looking from the front too.

Here's another shot.

It was a quickie job, once its do able I can find better clamp to do the job.
