I got GS1000 and its display is rather small. I am wondering how could I show a recorded movie to a policeman in case of a road accident or other event. Perhaps it is possible to connect the camera to my Sony Xperia Neo V by a special USB cable, download the movie and open it in the phone?
 
not familiar with your phone but I have an Android phone that supports Full HD playback, I can just put the MicroSD card in the phone and the files play straight up

an iPad (iPad 2 or later) with the camera connection kit will play the files straight off the card also

Of course I can try your method, but it is not comfortable to take the small card from camera and put it into the phone - I would have to take the device out from a silicone case, open the back cover and mount the memory card. And it reguire to swich the card off and on in Android (or switch off the phone which take some time)

Seriously for the amount of times this is needed I don't think it's such an inconvenience

a camera that supports WiFi streaming might be more to your liking if this is something you'd want to do regularly

Yes, but if he needs police help everyday :lol:
I have 100$ cheap chinese tablet in my car, that shows video files smoothly, and it has 7 inch display so it's very nice to look.
 
The camera must to have USB connector and the smartphone must to have USB-OTG support.

enjoy,

Yes, you are right. I have to purchase such a cable, e.g.

or Nokia C-157

- this cable is recommended in some forums. My phone supports USB host function

So I am going to purchase the cable and a micro SD card reader
And this method may prevent me form an unpleasant surprise - I want to see my movies on PC, teke out the card from the camera and forget to take it back to the camera...
