This came free with a Staples order. It's probably worth about the cost of a cup of coffee and a bagel--not much more. I think the suggested price is vastly inflated. The battery light came on one minute after I put the batteries in!

It does let you hook it up as a webcam, though it is unclear where you get the audio from.

Does NOT work with a Mac as a usb camera. You can put to put it into "Mass storage mode" and drag the movie .avi files to your desktop. iPhoto does recognize it as a camera that you can download photos from, which is nice, so it does beat the $10 mini camera from a chain drugstore beginning with the letter W.

          Comments about Global New Beginnings 3.1 MP Digital Video Camera:

          Staples has a lot of nerve calling this a [$] value. The $18[@] price is probably more realistic.

          Memory allows about 4 minutes of filming. Batteries drained in less than 10 minutes. Is it really worth what it was advertised as? Is this really the type of gift Staples wants to give to valued customers? Before receiving this toy, I was a big Staples fan—now, not so much.

          • Q:

            When I attempt to power on the camera the red light on the front, that usually indicates the camera is recording, just turns on and then nothing happens. Also, I can't seem to find my user manual is there an online version I can see?

          • Q:

            I received this camera and read the manual to find out information about the memory card size that can be used. In the manual it says "SD/MMC card (supports 128MB ~ 8GB)". However, several questions here say only up to 512MB? Has something changed? What is the correct max size of the card the camera can use? Thank you!
