SGSPIRIT commented on this camera and said the following:

"fishycomics, So you got your Aiptek DV5300. Looks good. It looks like you've confirmed it has no MP3 player.

I like the fact it turns on when you open the screen. That's handy to speed up using the camera. Does it have an optional power button in case you want to use it with the screen closed?

What did you mean by: "dv 5300 records longer video clips" ?

It will be interesting to hear from you how long it will run on the 2-AAA batteries it uses.

Thanks for the overview of it."

on the box as states:
lcd panel on/off
simply flip open the lcd panel to turn the camera on. When you are finished, close the panel to turn the camera off..
in the manual: on page 8 basic operations. Turning on your camera. Rotate the lcd panel as indicated. Then press and hold down the power (*)button for 2-3 sec's to turn on the camera. repeat in reverse order for off.
now lets see if there is auto on/off in the manual; as I just gone through the whole book, there are no auto on, but an auto off. so when you flip the lcd around you 1st must turn on the camera, and then if you decide not to power off you may close the camera and the auto of feature will shut it off. I had noticed that when I was typing in all of the box instructions I do not know if th lcd can be turned off while the camera is on. I still need time to play.

no mp3 player but a voice recorder, and you are able to load up files to transfer from one pc to another.
3
the only power button is on the camera behind the screen cover.

2aaa standard store batteries will last 1 hour garanteed.
2aaa rechargables 2 hours garanteed. I have left the camera run in vid mode with lcd screen on, and were able to pull out stills as well after auto shutdown of batteries being low.
you are welcomed
