  Hi "Slim" & friend, and welcome to Yahoo!Answers: I'm going to assume, since you didn't mention the Alba model number, that you've been looking at the D31 pocket camcorder. It's a simple "fixed focus" point-and-shoot beginner model with mono (not stereo) sound with a built-in mike. It won't give you great results, but if that's your budget range, you might shop around for a Kodak Z-series or one of the cheap Sanyo pocket models around the same price. Another drawback, from looking at the specs & features, is the 3x AAA battery power — which won't run the camera very long without replacing or re-charging. At least batteries are cheap in that size. If you don't mind a used one, you can shop around on Amazon.com or Amazon.co.uk and find a good deal there for half the money. Here's some Alba customer reviews (and "star ratings") from the Argos UK store website: http://reviews.argos.co.uk/1493-en_gb/5633582/reviews.htm For the same money (£49.99) you can buy a real brand-name camcorder (Vivitar) with a real auto-focus lens, and better quality: http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/partNumber/5635542.htm#pdpFullProductInformation hope this helps, --Dennis C.
