Mini HD Camera (MINI DV-006H) Review


I got this unit as a freebie when I had purchased an LED TV from Lazada (see my last post regarding MyView 24PX100 TV Review). Even up to this moment I still don't know what to do with this mini camera, maybe it was given to me for a purpose which still I have no idea yet.

 It's just like a keychain, very small that it could be used for spying. The one you're seeing above is it's actual size - it's just 43 x 24 x 10mm (LWD). It has the ability to capture 5megapixel photos and take videos of 1280 x 960 resolution. The camera's actually just 2megapixel, just upscaled to 5mp, doesn't have autofocus so don't expect digicam / smartphone quality photos. For video quality, it's good. It saves videos in .avi video format (quite, but not that heavy for storage). Anyway, this camera is compatible with up to 32gb microsd card.
You can even use the unit as a micro-sd card reader when you have the cable with you.

See below video review courtesy of YouTube:

There's no viewfinder. The red and blue micro-LED indicator will inform what the camera is currently doing.

 For what can you use it for?
video recorder (manual and automatic motion detection)
camera
spy / surveillance camera
sound recorder
web camera
card reader
keychain???

 What's with the package?
-Mini Camera
-Mini USB cable
-Mini CD (which contains the user manual). View it here.
-AA battery supply adaptor (use a single AA battery as an extended /emergency power)
-tin can casing

 Here's some of the specifications according to Metrodeal:

 The unit is just easy to use if you have fully read and understand the user manual

Unit is still priced Php 799 at Metrodeal.

How to Rewrite on a DVD-R and a CD-R Without any Burning Software

Part 1 Yes! you heard it right! You can now make your CD+/-R or DVD+/-R act like a rewritable one. During the Windows XP days, this is impossible. Once you have written something on a recordable disc, then you can't save a file on it anymore. Rewriting on a discs can only be done through CD+/-RW or DVD+/-RW type of discs. These rewritable type of discs costs as much as two to five times compared with the write-once or recordable discs. As I have upgraded my operating system from Windows XP into Windows 7, I have discovered several exciting things about it. I first thought that this feature is only designed for RW discs, but I have once experimented it on a write-once disc and it worked! This discovery is among the most important feature of Windows 7 that I am using until now. I've researched on it and found out that this is possible through the Windows 7's UDF file system To do this, you need the following: A blank CD-R, CD+R, DVD-R or a DVD+R An optical burner (m

MyPhone My82 DTV Review

Finally got this phone after a week of going back to the malls and asking every MyPhone kiosks if the unit is already available.. no more long stories, let's go directly to the review (or I'll say a quick review as I just got this device yesterday).

Digital TV antenna. Screen Protector is already installed in the unit - but you'll just immediately remove it as it is very scratch pro
