This video camera came out in the middle of last year, so maybe this is OLD news, but for us we just found this camera today and have just bought it so we can really test it out.
Let me introduce you to the Veho VCC-003 Muvi Micro DV Camcorder.
This little thing truly proves the fact that there are no limits to what you can achieve in technology these days.
Technical Details

- Measures only 55mm high x 20mm wide x 20mm deep
- Includes 2GB (up to 8GB MSD compatible) Micro SD card to record up to 90 minutes footage

- Standby mode with noise activation
Why Is It Good For Travelers?
How many times haven’t you wanted to film something but didn’t dare or simply couldn’t ask if you were allowed?
I remember walking past a temple in Malaysia where ‘Don’t you Wish your girlfriend was hot like me’ by the Pussy Cat Dolls was blasting out of the speakers during a dance class. It was such a funny contradiction, seeing all these middle aged men and women dancing sexy (slapping their bums) to this kind of music – in a temple!
I really wanted to record it so badly but I wasn’t sure if it was ok, so in a situation like this, this camera would have been great.
It’s small and comes in black or white, you can stick it on your chest pocket or jacket, and there is no red light revealing to others that you’re filming.
It will be an easy way to interview people from different cultures while on your travels, as many feel insecure when having a big video camera up in their faces, so this would be a more relaxed way of doing it and perhaps making the interviewed person feel more comfortable.
Another good reason to buy it is that you can just stick it on your jacket, and when you see something you want to record you can either push the record button straight away, or just say the magic word ‘action’, for the camera to start recording.
This way you will be able to catch so much more of the action during your trip, since often it takes such a long time to take the video camera out of the case, turn it on etc… when you have finally have it ready… it’s too late :p
As if these reasons weren’t enough, it seems like the camera is great for sporty people. It’s the ultimate camera for mountain bikers, climbers, skiers and going sledging for example.
There is already a bunch of products to which you can use the camera for.
This camera is definitely on our this months shopping-list, and we will make sure to make a review with it as soon as it’s in our hands (give us a few weeks for it to arrive from amazon!)
Stay tuned until then..
Also if you’re interested already in buying one – then head on over to amazon (they are offering 39% off right now) and check it out for yourself BELOW!

Hey hugh great that you found one in USA i forgot to add a link to amazon USA :p
We should be getting our camera next week – will be awesome to check it out and im sure you will find much use for it while in Thailand!
This is timely, as I am in the market for a small camera for my upcoming trip to Thailand. I see on Amazon that it ships from UK, so shipping to U.S. may be a bit expensive.
Actually, I just found on the U.S. Amazon site for $73.00US. That's less than 50% off the orig price.
This looks like a very good camcorder. I used my Flip video on one of my trips its very handy and easy to use, though I do prefer taking pictures than videos.
i am still waiting for it to arrive
but will do a review once we have it, we also have a Kodak zi8 which is an awesome little camera for HD filming!
