I've only had it for a week, so the jury is still out. On the good side, this allowed me to record for 1.5 hours without interruption. Also, although specs say up to 8GB flash drive, I used a 16GB with no problems. The camera also has a quick tripod release that makes battery changing easy. ALL OF THESE THINGS WERE GREAT. One set of four AAA batteries lasted me 2 hours. This does NOT have a rechargeable battery, so figure that into your long-term cost. On the negative side, I bought this so I would have a continual sound track while splicing in clips (using iMovie) taken with my other digital camera. The microphone on this camera is nearly worthless IMHO. The sound quality of a simple digital camera was far superior. Overall, I think I will be able to work around the sound problem because my particular application has a sound track available that can be merged with iMovie, but the microphone quality was a bit of a disappointment.

Not at all what was expected. Very poor quality. The description said "high definition" but that is far from the truth! I will be returning this!
