FREE DV4 Digital Camcorder / MP3 Player

Rear view with LCD monitor

The Nisis Pocket DV4 camera is a Digital Camcorder, Digital Still Camera, Web Cam, Voice Recorder, MP3 Player and USB portable disc. It measures only 4.2" x 2.7" x 1.6" but packs an incredible number of features, such as a 2 megapixels image sensor, SD/MMC card slot to accept cards of up to 256MB (not included), 1.5" colour TFT LCD display,16MB of built in Flash memory and much more.

You can view your recorded movies and still photographs on your television, if your tv has A/V inputs, and you can also upload them to your computer where you can edit and send them to your friends on the Internet.

The Pocket DV4 camera comes with a mini tripod, a carrying strap, A/V leads, a USB cable, rechargeable batteries, a mains battery charger, earphones, soft carrying bag and an installation CD that includes useful applications to help you create professional looking movies and still photographs.

The Pocket DV4 camera offers the ability to enhance the resolution of still photographs to 2048 x 1536 pixels (3 Megapixels) and 2272 x 1704 pixels (4 Megapixels) using a technique known as firmware interpolation. This enables you to print enlargements of your favourite photographs and maintain picture sharpness up to paper sizes in excess of A4 size

Lens detail

With the video functionality sorted, it's clear there's been a lot of focus (ahem, excuse the pun) on the DV4's stills functionality. A built-in flash and 4x digital zoom are functions often missing from basic digital cameras and yet somehow they've been shoehorned into the DV4's jaw-dropping spec.

kit

But wait, there's more! As if the above weren't enough, the Aiptek engineers got quite carried away and included voice recorder and MP3 player functionality. AND, with the addition of an SD Card, the DV4 can be used as a removeable Hard Drive. Pretty amazing, we think you'll agree.

Arty angle

Just because there's five gadget's worth of functionality crammed into the DV4 doesn't mean it's piled on the flab. Oh no. It's just as svelte as previous offerings, but gives you so much more tech per pound. Why carry five gadgets around with you when the DV4 can do everything so damn proficiently?
