    Take video notes using pencam

    Comments about Swann PenCam 4 GB:

    The concept for taking video notes is good. But the video is not clear when your target is moving. The audio is not good too.

        Comments about Swann PenCam 4 GB:

        I was amazed at how well the video quality was. I have used it stationary, walking, as well as driving in a car. Only thing that is a bit suspicious, is the bright blue light that will shine on your shirt when using to video tape something or someone.
