With Halloween just a few days away, it doesn't hurt to get in the mood for the fall holiday with some pumpkin-colored gadgets. Here are five orange treats to go with your costume this weekend:

1. Sony Webbie HD MHS-PM1: If you either want to record your child's first trick-or-treating experience or all of the best moments at a Halloween party or parade, this attractive Sony Webbie is a frugal option. Far cheaper than competitors like the Flip UltraHD or the Kodak Zi8, the Webbie HD MHS-PM1 is typically available for less than $150.

While it hasn't been reviewed as highly as the other previously mentioned cameras, it does shoot HD footage at 720p and 1080p. Not to mention it also features a swiveling lens and a memory card expansion shot for more recording time.

2. Samsung DualView TL225: Attracting a lot of hype in the last few months for its dual-screen design, this 12.2-megapixel, orange and black pocket camera is innovative and perfect for any party or parade. On its touch-screen navigation menu, photographers can select between another of special preset functions, including night portrait, children, dawn, and "perfect self-portrait."
