Disgo Ultra Affordable YouTube Camcorder Upgraded to Disgo Video Plus

Disgo’s cheap and cheerful camcorder which, alongside the likes of the Flip and Sony’s Net Sharing Cam, is aimed at those looking for a rudimentary point and shoot device - such as those looking to produce content for YouTube and bloggers looking to add a little video based content to their sites – has now been upgraded to become the Disgo Video Plus.

Agreed, the previous Disgo camcorder was never the most attractive or feature rich of devices and, in this respect, little has changed. But where Disgo’s take on highly affordable YouTube/Blogging camcorders had the edge over the likes of the aforementioned Flip and Sony’s Net Cam was in terms of its extremely low retail price – a mere £40.

The new, upgraded Disgo Video Plus is a little more expensive (retailing for around £70 / $137) but in light of the fact that this upgraded version comes with all the features of its forerunner as well as a new 1.5” flip out TFT screen (instead of the embedded affair in the previous model), a x2 digital zoom, and a built in speaker and microphone, its hardly priced at a premium.

Certainly if you’re looking to create home movie masterpieces then you’ll no doubt find the Disgo Video Plus’s rudimentary nature wholly restrictive but, for those looking for a cheap point and shoot device that facilitates the uploading of video content to sites such as YouTube, to your own sites or for attaching video clips to emails the Disgo’s ease of use, occasioned by its extreme simplicity, is undoubtedly a major selling point.
