Mini keyring-sized digital camera/camcorder

As far as I recall, the light wont go out when its reached full charge which is a little confusing.

I generally find its reached full charge after about 30 mins connected to a USB port. Check the 808 site for further info but I think that is about right. :cool:
 
I forgot to mention, the cable they supply is useless, I get much better results using the USB cable that came with my D60 camera, both charging, and transferring files. :) If you are having problems, bin the supplied cable.

Agreed. I had the same problem, the cable that came with the camera was rubbish. Using one I had already. ;)

I have a camera that is utterly abysmal at transferring files.

Don't know what it is, loads a couple of pics in thumbnail then locks up.

Bought myself a compact USB card reader for about £4, stick the memory card in that, flawless.
 
just had play around with mine, tie wrapped it to the front grill at the bottom of the car, quality is ok, placement needs abit of a tweak but audio keeps going very quiet then slowly coming back loud again. Maybe too loud where its placed for the mic? I'm maybe thinking of attaching it to the bonnet and trying it there to see if its any better.
 
well I time-lapsed my journey home round the m25 and it's kind of interesting but I can't really be bothered to upload it :p

Journey is about an hour 5 mins. Attached it to centre of dash one direction. The battery lasted the whole journey and it split into 3 files of 30 mins x2 and one 5 mins. Total of 3.64 GB. However the dash was in the way of the bottom half cause it was too low down.
Attached it to the rear-view mirror on the way back. Don't think I charged it enough so it only lasted 42 mins giving me 2.5GB of files. Also because it was mid-evening and there was more sky in this one, the road itself came out much more under-exposed at times. The main problem though was after about 4:15 it must have recorded a dodgy frame or something as playing through this point caused windows media player to break (image frozen but sound continuing). I had to cut it out when I was time-lapsing it or the whole clip became a frozen image after that point.
 
Im tempted to get one for when im out on the MTB and to attach to my R/C heli, but if theres one thing i hate, and thats buying stuff from HK through Ebay, dont know why i just hate doing it.
