4.0 out of 5 stars I like it....but I don't., January 23, 2006
By 
I'm pretty certain this is really a Digilife under a different badge, but that remains to be proven. As flash based camcorder-things go this is at the higher end of the crop, but there's a few things that kept me from really liking it.

First, the good stuff:

Size: It's really small, about the size of a large pack of cigarettes. But since nobody smokes today, think of a small iPod.

Battery: Proprietary lithium-ion, more juice until you run out or it goes bad. I haven't found a place that carries replacements.

Format: Shoots in plain old Avi format. Takes pictures as jpegs, and can record voice and play Mp3's. Even comes with earphones and a charger.

Video Quality: Shoots at 640X480, and results are usually fairly clean and clear. However, the frame rate is variable and does slow down when it's dark. Further, the LCD display can't go as fast as the camera, so some clips you review may look a sluggish 10FPS until you play them on your computer. There's also a very noticeable delay (2 seconds or more) from when you press the button to when it starts recording.

Still Quality: Possibily the most feeble flash I've seen, but snapshot-level still pictures. In dim light the camera turns up the contrast considerably, to the point you're better sticking to bright daylight. The range settings (macro, portrait, landscape) actually work, and make a considerable difference in how pictures turn out.

Controls: Elegant, but also cryptic, it takes a while to get used to the various modes and selections. Suffice to say there's modes from sharpness to white balance to tinker with.

Feel: Here I think is my real problem with this camera, it just doesn't feel like one. I have a DXG 301V, which has the format of a mini-camcorder. In practically every aspect it is a poorer camera, yet I like it better because of the way it feels in my hand and the plethora of little controls right in plain view. The Deo feels like, and is, a toy.

Conclusion: For most people, this will be a decent little gizmo. For a cheap camera, it takes surprisingly good video, it's main requirement is having decent lighting.
