When my brother showed up at a reception with one of these little 'palm-sized' cameras, I have to admit I was skeptical. (Being a digital imaging professional!) But, when I began to really take a look at the results-- WOW -- I was blown away. What a cool camera -- what a cool price! (The high-end is just 150-bucks... he paid $100, but now some models are as low as $47! At that price, you can risk losing it, and just get another one!)
DXG-506V 5 Megapixel combo digital camcorder/camera/MP3 player/voice recorder/webcam -- all in one, is making a hit everywhere.
The DXG-506V has a cool camcorder-shaped design and comes in 4 trendy colors: Deep-Sea Blue, Metallic Pink, Midnight Black, and Classic Silver.
With compact styling, the DXG-506V digital camcorder is perfect to take on the road for recording video with sound or for snapping photos to send to friends or to post on your homepage or favorite community sites, such as Myspace, Facebook, and Youtube. The camcorder is geared towards teens, young adults and parents, where price, quality and style are most important.
Designed with minimal buttons for increased ease-of-use, with trendy colors and an affordable suggested retail price of only $149, the DXG-506V digital camcorder has the convenience and look that consumers want, plus the features of a more expensive 5 Megapixel camcorder/camera -- without the premium price-tag.
Record Video, Take Pictures, Listen To Your Music Wherever You Go
With the familiar compact camcorder look and feel, the DXG-506V makes video recording easy with near DVD-quality MPEG-4 video (up to 640x480 at 30 frames per second), in addition to capturing digital photos of up to 12 Megapixels.
When hooked up to a computer via USB cable, the camcorder can also be used as a webcam for video chat or video conferencing with your friends, family, and co-workers. In addition, MP3 music and audio files can also be transferred from your computer to the DXG-506V, so you can bring your music with you wherever you go. The camcorder can also be used as a digital voice recorder, perfect for college students and business people, to record lectures, meetings, personal reminders and to-do lists.
You can entertain your friends at parties by connecting the DXG-506V to your TV to view your own 'world's funniest videos' and slideshows on a large screen. And because of the included 32MB of internal memory and SD Card slot, the DXG-506V also functions as a portable storage device for saving all kinds of crucial documents. Besides posting and emailing your favorite photos, you can also print up to 8.5" x 11" photos, either directly from the camcorder without a computer (with the included PictBridge technology) or with a computer; or you can bring the camera's removal SD card to a local drug-store kiosk or photo store for prints, calendars, and holiday cards.
