OK for the basic use I intend, cheap. Bulky, not very smart, washed screen.
2008-12-06I just needed a mean to backup and review photos during a long trip I am about to take. It will definitely serve this purpose. I just hope that it will endure the trip (looking at the external construction I have doubts about its quality).
On the other hand, there are some shortcomings:
- It will not display RAW files (I knew this before I bought it). But the thing is that it will not even show them as files that can't be displayed, but can be listed and copied to a new location.
- It is bulky.
- The screen colors are much washed. It will not show the real colors.
- I can zoom once into a photo. When I try to zoom again the unit freezes.
I have not used, and do not plan to use, music and video recording or playback.
Don't waste your $
2007-10-23I'm sorry for those who wish to sell their used unit, but I'm also a user of this product, or should I say USE TO BE. For those who are interested in purchasing....buy something usefull.
Once the battery fails, it's useless. You can't replace it. The only way is to send the entire unit back to Mustek and you're at their mercy as to the price for the battery and shipping costs. Do you really want to frustrate yourself???????
The only good thing about the unit is the fair video quality. The sound is tinney, low volume (even on high).
Even though there's no speaker (connect earphones), the San Disk Sansa is the best bang for the buck!
Interesting toy to play with
2007-09-27I have tried a little of almost everything with this device. I have played MP3 music; recorded shows and movies from Satellite, VCR, DVD, and other sources; played those recordings on a PC; and stored photos and computer data as if it was an external hard drive. Everything has worked so far.
On the downside, the earphones created instant static (so I substituted them with a set that I have used with a standalone MP3 player), the device is on the thick side, and the external speakers volume does not turn up high enough to listen to (you need to plug external speakers on the headset output to listen to the music or videos if you do not use a headset).
I like the relatively large screen and it almost offsets the negativity due to the thickness of this device. You can just plug in this device to a PC and play video and/or music etc by double clicking on the file stored on this PVR
It has been easy to use and fun to play with so far for the first couple of months.
some what pleased
2007-09-21I really liked the product stands for, but there were problems that I guess are internal problems with the machine. I have purchased this device several times and each time there was a different problem with the machine. After I loaded about 35 movies on the device, it wouldn't cut on. Once the machine wouldn't cut off, so I had to reset the devise, which I lost all of my movies. I think if there were more products like this, it could really be a good device, because it was good for travel and you don't have to take a portable DVD player and movies with you. I really like the devise, it just had too many problems for me. I would love to have another one, but I have purchased too many and returned too many, so I don't want to keep getting the devise, only to have to return it and keep paying for shipping fees for manufacture problems.
Mustek WHO:(???????????
2007-09-07I don't know what I was thinking!!!!!!!!!!!!:). ZERO RATING
First- You only get 2 hours on a full charge
Second-Customer Services is the WORST
Third-It's heavy
Fourth-When watching a video there's a gap between the actors speaking and what you see. Think of the old school Karate movies.
Fifth-The ac piece on the machine broke after one year
Six-If you watch a movie and needed to stop in the middle, forget about it, it won't hold your spot so you go back to the beginning of the show:(
Seven-It doesn't show the names of your songs-more than 5 spaces and once a song in there you can't move it.
Eight-the kickstand broke because it made of plastic and too weak.

Camera basics: shutter-speed, aperture and ISO
In this article, I’ll introduce you to the basic elements that you can use to control exposure in your shooting. If you have a digital SLR, there will be a way to set all of these controls on your camera, but since they differ between manufacturers and models, you’ll need to refer to your camera’s manual to find out exactly how to change them.
All cameras, whether an ancient film camera, or a more modern digital, work in pretty much the same way. Photographs are taken by letting light fall onto a light-sensitive medium, which records the image. Traditionally, this has been film, but more recently, it tends to be a digital sensor. The more light that falls onto the film or sensor, the lighter the image.
Put simply, a camera consists of a light-tight box that stores a light-sensitive device (either a film or a digital sensor), a lens that magnifies and focuses the image onto that light-sensitive device through a hole in the box (called the aperture) , and a shutter that opens ...
Digital camera batteries
Batteries are vital for all photography and makiing sure that you have a spare set is essential if you intend to take alot of pictures. Print digital also recommend that when deciding upon a digital camera keep in mind what sort of batteries it takes. Does it take rechargeable batteries, are the batteries built and do you have to plug it into the mains, or does the camera only take standard batteries, if so then it can become exspensive if you are a keen photographer and use the camera alot.
There are three types of rechargeable batteries: NiCD, NiMH and Lithium-Ion. Nickel Metal Hydride are the most popular rechargeable batteries at present. They hold more charge than their counter parts NiCD and don't suffer from memory effect. The one small down fall of these batteries is that they will loose a small amount of charge even if they are not being used, so be sure to check the batteries before using them.
When you purchase a new digital camera make sure to ask what type of battery ...
