Uh oh, DXG's creeping its way up into luxury territory. Earlier this year, we saw the outfit dish out a craptacular $149 HD camcorder, and just a few months back we were introduced to the $169 DXG-569V. Now, it'll take another Hamilton in order to rightfully claim its newest unit, the DXG-567V. The pocket-friendly cam is available in four different hues, ships with rechargeable AA batteries and uploads directly to YouTube and other video sharing sites without much hassle at all. DXG claims that this bugger captures video at 1,280 x 720 (30fps), but even at $179, we have our doubts about the overall quality. Better watch out though, by this time next year you'll see DXG perched up beside Sony, Panasonic and the rest of the respected gang.
DXG-569V HD camcorder available for $169
While DXG has few aspirations to taste or quality, they sure know how to price this stuff. The new DXG-569V HD cam can shoot 1280 x 720 video at 30 fps, captures 5 megapixel stills and sports a 3-inch foldout LCD, all for the bargain basement price of $169. Naturally, that video quality probably won't be putting RED ONE out of a job, and you'll need to supply your own SD card to make the magic happen, but if that doesn't dissuade you, you can swipe one from a Radio Shack shelf in silver or black as of today.
DXG's 565V hopes for "must have" status from Girl's Life
Hooray, another budget camcorder from DXG. Perfect for "teens, college students, young adults, and women" who apparently all fit into the category of lovers of cheap, questionable quality recorders. The DXG-565V is a 5 megapixeler capable of recording 720 x 480 pixel MPEG-4 video at 30fps. It'll even play back Hannah Montana MP3s in a crunch. Rounding things out are a 2.4-inch LCD, 0x optical zoom (yes, zero), and "5 cool colors" including pink and daddy-I-want-a-trust-fund-NOW. Just $99 for you, sweetie.
DXG delivers DXG-566V HD camcorder for $149

DXG's DXG-110 gives you 10 megapixels for (well) under $200

DXG unveils uber-cheap DXG-572V camcorder
The bargain-bin-phenom has struck again, and this time it's the five-megapixel DXG-572V camcorder that's delivering a lot of promises for an uber-cheap price. 'Course, we wouldn't expect the built-in CMOS sensor, 4x digital zoom, white balance adjuster, voice recorder, digital still camera, or "near DVD quality" 640 x 480 MPEG4 / AVI video that this thing captures to win any awards, but those who don't mind chintzy ought not find any issues with this. Moreover, the unit boasts 32 measly megabytes of internal storage, an SD / MMC expansion slot, USB 2.0 connectivity, and a flip-out LCD screen to boot. If you're still sold, you can call the DXG-572V yours for just $149.99, and feel free to click on for a couple more angles.
DXG intros budget-priced 7.1-megapixel digicam

After a slight detour with some PMPs, low-end manufacturer DXG is getting back to its regular game of cheap but wholly unremarkable digital cameras, upping things to a full 7.1 megapixels with its new DXG-711 digicam. Apart from that more than adequate (for most) resolution, the camera will give you a 3x optical zoom, a 2.5-inch LCD display, a built-in voice recorder, and 32MB of internal memory -- it's not clear what expansion options there are, although DXG's other cameras have all had SD card slots. As you can see, the company also keeps things about as basic as can be with the camera's design. If that suits you just fine, you'll only have to drop $150 to call this camera your own.
DXG's DXG-589V camera / camcorder does gaming, too
We've seen bargain-basement brands toss gaming functionality into a non-gaming device in a somewhat futile attempt to polish up a product before, and apparently, DXG has caught the consolidation bug too. The DXG-589V handheld camera / camcorder mimics the design of Sanyo's Xacti HD2, but rather than packing excellent resolution and HD capturing abilities, this rendition scales back on the goods that matter in order to reach a rock bottom price. Users will find a three-inch LTPS monitor, five-megapixel CMOS sensor, MP3 support, a rechargeable Li-ion cell, SD card slot, and direct recording abilities from an external video source, but you'll only be grabbing MPEG4 footage at 640 x 480 resolution. Additionally, you'll discover 20 less-than-enthralling games built right in, and with the PlayStation-esque control pad, Sony fans shouldn't have any problem getting the buttons down. Of course, the stripped-down nature of this here device allows DXG to shed a few dollars off the purchase price, but we'd be seriously cautious about dropping even $199.99 for this one.
DXG hops on the PMP wagon, kicks out Roadster DXG-521
When you think about DXG (if the name even rings a faint bell), a few off-the-wall digicams could come to mind, but the company best known for kicking out digital imaging products is delving into the ever-popular portable media player realm with its Roadster DXG-521. Looking slightly more like Sega's Game Gear than a sleek, pocket-friendly PMP of the modern era, this relatively unsightly device measures 4.75- x 2.25- x 0.81-inches around and reportedly sports a modest 2.5-inch LCD, 32MB of built-in memory, SD card slot, video-out, USB 2.0 connectivity, FM radio, MP3 playback, a voice recorder, four integrated video games (including Tetris), and a rear five-megapixel camera for snapping pictures on the run. Additionally, users can expect to capture external video into MPEG4 files, and while we can't say it's surprising, you can have your pick of the oh-so-trendy black / gloss white color schemes. Nah, we don't expect the video nor audio quality here to live up to the standards set by more luxurious offerings, but this doesn't look half bad for a couple Benjamins.

DXG announces 5MP boringcam for the tweens
So, mommy and daddy are too cheap to spring for an AVCHD cam, what's an up-and-coming Spielberg to do? Snap up a DXG-506V, shoot those vids, and curse every minute of it. For $150 you can have your pick of a few different colored cameras, each with a 5.1 megapixel sensor and VGA 30 fps video recording. There's 32MB of built-in memory, along with an SD card slot to boost the minutes of crappy video or number of crappy pictures you can capture. The device also works as an MP3 player, voice recorder or webcam, and includes a 1.7-inch flip-out LCD screen, along with useless 4x digital zoom and 12 megapixel upsampling features. The 506V runs on three AAA batteries, and should be available now at major retailers.
