		<description>While talking of pocket camcorders I wonder why every site, every review speaks only of the Flips &amp; Kodaks, while safely avoiding the Toshiba Camileos.  I guess the Flips are damn good, but being not available (generally) outside the US, we mortals need to do with the other models.

I bought my Camileo S10 few days back, did some heavy duty shooting around and let me assert here that this is a preety good camcorder, as well. 

I took a whole day, visiting various retailers, testing the Sony Webbie, Kodak Zx1, Aiptek z700, Xacti CG10 and the Camileo P30 &amp; S10, besides the Samsung ST550 [TL225 elsewhere] (a Digital Camera doing 720p HD).  These were the compact camcorders available here (Flip Ultra HD, Samsung U10 &amp; Kodak Zi8 are not yet marketed here) and settled down for the Camileo S10 due to:
1.  Great form factor.
2.  Lightest among all.
3.  *Best HD clips (2nd was Aiptek z700). 
4.  *2nd best Still shots (best was Aiptek z700), but very-very good.
5.  **Li-ion Battery (keeps the device slimmer).
6.  ***Upto 32 Gb SD Card compatible.
7.  Got an 8 Gb SD card free from the store.
8.  Similar priced; under USD 160/-  [the CG10 is a bit costlier (and the P30 is no better, but bigger)].
9.  HDMI port (a must, so that we enjoy Full HD footage on an FHD TV). 
10. ****Deal breaker: Slips easily into my shirt pocket, with ZERO bulge.

*Both clips &amp; shots analyzed by playing on a 42&quot; FHD LCD TV. [remember, it shoots just one step lower than 1080p, which is as good as 1080p, an ordinary guy like me would&#039;nt notice the difference at all].
**Bought another Li-ion battery for Stand-by (these are the same as used in most of the cameras &amp; camcorders; thus, readily available - not proprietary; costed only USD 8/-).
***Note: standard SD card, NOT Micro SD; thus, cheaper.
****The S10 is a Flat device, half the thickness of my cigarette pack (B&amp;H 20&#039;s) and only half inch taller than it.

EDITING &amp; BURNING DVD:
I edited the clips &amp; burnt a (regular) DVD - and wow! the movie was stunning. To note here, the supplied ArcSoft Suite is &quot;just OK&quot;, but I had no problem making my DVD thru the Cyberlink PowerDirector Express, which is a good movie software and came with my JVC HD7.

MY VERDICT:
Friends, don&#039;t have any 2nd thoughts. If the 10 pointers I mentioned above are also your considering factors, go for the Camileo S10. 

It is better than the rest. AND be assured, the vids are VERY SIMILAR to that of a Hi-End HD Camcorder (I have one), if you can overcome the top-notch movies you get from them due to their manual controls. But then, we are talking about a &quot;Pocket Camcorder&quot;, whose basic purpose is to carry everywhere and shoot at the spur of the moment and under 1/10th of the price the Camileo S10 is a steal.

I am deeply satisfied with my Camileo; and so would be you!!!</description>
