 Bottom Barrel Service History

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Mustek DV316L has the shortest Bottom Barrel Service Life of all of the cameras used by the Bottom Of The Barrel, The camera was gotten for free.

This camera has Sound Quality that was worse than the DV3500 model but it was able to film at 640x480 in 30 FPS (The DV350 could film in 640x480 but unfortunately in a lower frame rate), The Video Quality was somewhat better than the DV3500, I never made any attempts to take any pictures (Why do that when I had a Digital Camera that took superior quality pictures) or record any sound with it, It had a built in light which allowed filming in darker environments.

The camera was abruptly withdrawn from a short service after the Kodak Zi6 entered service, A video that was filmed and edited before the Kodak Zi6 was put into service never got uploaded (I decided to just upload videos in Quality and Widescreen High Definition when that happened).

This camera will be subjected to some "Stress" tests followed by a Official Retirement Ceremony (The DV316L may likely make it's final journey to either a Landfill or Electronics Recycling after that) in the future than it will be good riddance to another Shitty Quality Video Camera (Definitely the last Low End Shitty Video Camera I will ever own) and I'm never using a Mustek product Again.

3/26/2015 UPDATE - This Camera was Officially Retired on March 16, 2015 the video can be seen here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jRkyvmyMUb4
