It has a Li-ON rechargable battery built in, something that's not to common with cheaper digital cameras. The docking station can charge it in about 3 hours if you plug in the wall-wart that comes with the unit, or you can charge via USB overnight instead if you're on the go and can't be bothered brining the wall wart.

I had the luxury of trying the camera before purchasing it, along with several others in the sub $200 price range, and for $130 I feel like I got the most value for dollar based on what my needs are.

A pocket sized camcorder/camera with decent battery life that isn't so flimsy you break it when you sit down (back pocket!) this is an excellent choice.

I find it defaulting to camcorder mode upon power up annoying, but for $130 I'm not going to complain too loudly.]]>May 29th 2007 10:45PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/05/22/musteks-dv520t-camera-camcorder-hybrid-does-vga-video/http://www.engadget.com/2007/05/22/musteks-dv520t-camera-camcorder-hybrid-does-vga-video/Jun 11th 2007 5:51AM
