This cute looking camcorder is compact and lightweight making it ultraportable so good for parties or on a night out. There is no lens cap, no dials or settings to set making it so simple and easy to use; you just turn it on and hit record! The videos are also recorded in HD which is something the Flip Mino one of its rivals can’t do.

It has a 2.4″ colour LCD screen  on the front and controls to record video or take still pictures. It also has a handy USB connector on the side for easy upload to your computer.  Kodak provides all the cables for the relevant inputs (AV and HD) which is a nice touch -  I for one hate going to buy cables!!

Available on line in pink or black for around £130.00, this sleek pocketable design is built for easy video.

• 2.5 x 4.5 x 0.9″
• Easy upload to YouTube with built in UBS

How much do I want one of these babies! It has to be the simplest camcorder ever - no tapes, no cables and it looks cute too. You just point and shoot then plug the USB arm into your computer to upload your digital video - sounds easy peasy. It’s even small enough to fit in your handbag on a night out, oh what fun to be had - although do we want our naughtiness to be captured on video?!

It’s got 2GB of memory which isn’t bad and 60 minutes of recording time  and comes in a variety of colours. It even has direct upload to YouTube, MySpace and AOL which is pretty handy.

Now available online and in stores, including PCWorld and Amazon and will only set you back £99.99.
