An electronic Swiss Army Knife!

"I travel frequently to places where you need to pack light, move fast, and have no time for complex hardware. I also need a still camera, video recorder, MP3 player (to stay sane), voice-memo recorder, and reliable data storage that won't take up too much space in a carry-on, or arouse the greed of some nation's customs officials. The AIPTEK DV5900 fits these requirements as perfectly as it fits into my carry-on..." Read Full Review »

meh....

"This is a really awesome camera... for the most part. It has a lot of really nice features like a mp3 player, built in charger, remote control, and an excellent camcorder. When I first bought this camera I was stoked. But... then after I had it awhile I've found out there are a lot of things I really do not like about it at all. First of all, it is a horrible camera for almost any type of dark or night setting..." Read Full Review »

"I read the reviews before purchasing this camera, and they were pretty accurate. It is a decent camera/camcorder for the money. When I can get my hands still (I have yet to master digital picture taking), the pictures in good lighting are excellent. It does have a stabilizing feature, but it can …"  Read Full Review »

"I love the camera now that I have learned how to use it. Some of the special features are fun- such as the 2 in 1 and the picture frames. And it takes very sharp pictures.Easy to travel with too as it is small and compact. I can slip it into a pocket or my "fanny pack" "

"I use it with an external camera, mike mounted to a motorcycle. Does a great job. At highest VGA resolution and slow speed SD card going 45mph it does pause for shortimes to write to disk. With faster card it would probably not slow down at all.

For me it the batter seems to last for over two hour …"  Read Full Review »

"This camcorder works much better than I thought it would. My big issue with it, is that there is NO pause button and it makes me crazy! Get a big memory card and you'll have lots of room (I got a 2 gig card and it's enough for me). It's also hard to set it on a flat surface and record without it …"  Read Full Review »
