Vivitar DVR 528

The Vivitar DVR 528 is low-cost video camera that creates high definition video. This is almost identical to the Vivitar DVR 518, but has been redesigned with a more angular body and a brighter red shell.

While the cost has been significantly reduced, the same 5 megapixel sensor is used and the same fixed focus lens gathers light without using a narrow focal range. The sensor is capable of white balancing to account for a variety of lighting conditions, and can record either still images in JPG format or video in AVI format. Video can be viewed by copying the files through a standard USB interface, or by taking advantage of the TV out function. The camera runs on basic AAA batteries.
