so look today on my video blog we continue the search for a camera that will allow us to take good quality indoor video get some good close-up so we can actually see what it says on the boxes of whatever it is we're unboxing so one of my co-workers mentioned to me that this kodak easyshare m109 3 is is actually supposed to be have a pretty good video movie said it doesn't say anything about it on the box but it actually supports 720p video capture so another thing you'll notice about the box itself is the is so what that means is this actually got image stabilization which is an extremely useful feature as you may have noticed in one of the videos we did before where I didn't use this camera okay so let's have a look at what we've got inside here so first of all are you ready to get the most from your new kodak camera register now get great deals tips and more plus an exclusive offer on accessories excellent okay so inside there what we have is the users guide which is actually quite thick for just a consumer camera i'm assuming it's multiple languages here so yeah the english part is actually only about yeah 30 pages long so that's going to tell you all the basics like how to turn on the camera how to set the language date and time etc etc okay next we have the software disc so this is available in about 50 different languages it's version 7 and it works on Windows or the Mac awesome and last but not least get ready to get them okay to talk about that okay so inside you will find a battery charger so let's just take this out so you can have a quick look at it here so it's one of those ones that plugs into your wall via this wire if I could find it I would tell you oh this is okay hold on let's let's sort out my brain here and then we'll go from there Oh interesting okay so it plugs in like this actually there we plug in like that plug it into the no no that doesn't work either it does it plugs it in this way there plugs in like that and then it's a USB adapter that's all it is the camera seems to actually charge by USB not from the wall so that's kind of handy so it means it probably ninety percent of the time you're not even going to bother using this adapter because you can just charge the camera with the included USB cable by plugging that into your computer so yeah what you would normally do is you plug in the USB cable here and then you can charge it with the little mini USB cable here so then this is a non standard USB so it's not the normal one that you use for cameras so be aware of that you can't just replace it with any USB a to mini-b connector here we have a little dock thing okay so that's where the cameras it's when you're putting it on that then we've got a little wrist strap then we have the battery so this is a digital camera battery it's a rechargeable lithium-ion battery fairly standard fare okay and last but not least we have the camera itself it's quite heavy actually it's the first thing I notice about it see if I can get it out of the box here and show you more closely how it is heavy although that'll be difficult to show on film okay so first of all you can see we've got HD Stills and video that's one of the things they advertise about it it's a 10 megapixel camera you can see it's got a built-in flash here in a standard 3x optical zoom on this side you're going to find the USB connector so please note again that is a little bit smaller than the standard mini be connectors then here is a power in if you were to run it on like a tripod or whatever for constant video footage then on the bottom you've got your SD slot as well as your battery slot so the battery will go in a little something like that there we go then you've got a little tripod amount and then on the back you've got a nice large screen which is really nice to see it's a glossy screen and then here's all of your control so there's you zoom delete photo playback all that good stuff and then on the top you can change the mode you've got your shutter button flash and power button so it's a fairly straightforward little point and shoot anyway I'm going to do my next video using this so we're going to see how good the video mode is thanks for checking out my blog
