Cheap mini-DV cameras at Tesco
UncleFista - 3/3/10 at 09:14 AM

Available (or not) from Tesco for £9 including a 2Gb Micro SD card.

Seems like it's an "end of line" deal so availability will be a bit hit and miss, but if you're going to Tesco anyway, you might as well try for nowt

I've been using that camera, and for the price is quite good (it's a secondary camera, thought)
You can find it on the Bay under the name MD80.
It will eat 4 Gb / hour (give or take).

I've bought a few, from 7 to 14 USD, no card on it.

Cameras are usually good, cards are usually crap.

Good idea, I've checked the Brighouse branch, no luck, the Canal Road branch would be your best bet I reckon.

Poo! I bought an ebay Hong Kong one and it cost me £11


GeoffT - 3/3/10 at 11:53 AM

I bought one of the Ebay cheapo's too - great little device for the cash, but don't bother with sd cards smaller than 4gb, as mentioned above they've got a huge appetite for memory....

Got mine from Hong Kong (Ebay) or £10:50 inc delivery.
Good bit of kit, needs a Class 6 memory card for best results. Takes up to 8Gb card.
Mine forks fine on a std 2gb card, but only does about 40 mins.

Excellent bit of kit for the money.
Mate got the keyring version for £4 delivered!
they are easier to mount! ie flat top and bottom.

Excellent, as its not a fortune lost if you loose it or bust it when doing silly things with the car.

I've already got one, but it's worth a trip to Tesco for a few more at that price...

One one hand you have the real Veho Muvi video camera, which has a metal body and cost real money.

Then there's the Chinese blatant copy with a plastic body which we've all bought for a few quid.

You pays yer money...

(Interesting to know which one Tesco was selling...)


SALAD - 3/3/10 at 03:57 PM

I rang my local massive Tesco and no luck.
If anyone finds some at their store could you please get me a couple?!

No it's not, but that's where I've nicked the picture from


SALAD - 4/3/10 at 09:42 AM

So has anyone managed to track these down yet?


SALAD - 23/3/10 at 02:13 PM

I've seen the thread about the cheap DV cameras, so that is an option, but has anyone got a spare one of these that I could buy??


lococost - 23/3/10 at 05:20 PM

do a search on the bay of E for "MD80". Plenty around.


SALAD - 23/3/10 at 07:50 PM

Yep I found them, just wondering if any of the original Veho Muvi ones were about.
