so today on my video blog we continue the search for a camera that will allow
us to take good quality indoor video uh
get some good close-ups 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 easy share m1093 is
is actually supposed to be have a pretty good video mode he 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 it's 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 user's 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 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 disk 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 uh get ready to get them okay i already talked 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 in this way there plugs in like that and then
it's a usb adapter that's all it is so the camera seems to actually charge by
usb not from the wall so that's kind of
handy so it means that probably 90 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 camera sits
when you're putting it on that then we've got a little uh wrist
strap and then we have the battery so this is a
digital camera battery it's a rechargeable lithium ion battery a
fairly standard fare okay and last but not least we have the camera itself oh
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 and 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 b connectors then here
is a power in if you were to run it on like a tripod or whatever for constant
video uh 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 mount 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 controls so
there's your 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 camera so we're
going to see how good the video mode is thanks for checking out my blog
