Good Points

It has many useful functions like camera, mp3, voice recorder and video recorder.
It is light weight and easily transportable
It drops and adrops without getting destroyed
It is not complicated to use at all
It has self timer, which has been v. useful for a lonely traveller like myself.
It comes with every needed extra bits.


Bad Points

The date stamp needs adjusting everyday, otherwise it reverts to a default date, which can be really annoying. Most of my photos have some strange dates permanently stamped on them.
It The video recorder has a way of playing tricks on me, I haqve missed many shot where I thought I was filming but was actually not.
It is almost useless at night, expect where there's very bright light
The lens can be easily blocked with a finger - a design issue
The flash is not strong enough.


General Comments

I simply love my Aiptek DV3300. I bought it in 2003 and have carried it all around the world. It is not the greatest product out there, but no one can help but fall in love with it. It simply have everything one needs, when one needs them. Interestingly, based on my experience with 3300, I ordered the HDDV 8300, but unfortunately, it seems I have simply wasted my money - because, I have simply got too attached to my reliable 3300.
