Shooting in 1080p Full HD, the Acer CloudMobile S500 takes a decent stab at video.

Settings are rather more limited than they are for photos, though. You can turn the light on or off, record a YouTube video, put it on a timer and turn audio on or off.

Settings aside, the video camera puts up a solid but unspectacular performance.
