The camera states it has an IR light, but that isn't accurate. It has a red laser light for focus of the lens. The camera does see in darkness if you have an external IR light source (which thankfully we do). The instructions that come with the camera are 100% useless, you will simply have to play with it to figure it out (it comes direct from China and there are no worthy documents with the camera). Now with that said, our dog has been wearing the camera and it doesn't do bad for $40some bucks, compared to paying over $100. The batteries don't last too long, but in the end, you get what you pay for and as long as you know what you're looking for and what to expect, this camera isn't too bad. If you're not the type that can easily figure out electronics, this isn't the camera for you.
I returned it a month ago and still haven't received credit.That's it in a nutshell, it sits on the side of your helmet so it gives a strange point of view. If it mounted flat on top of your helmet it would be much better.This is the first negative review I have written on any of the many Amazon purchases I have made.
This camera is little more than a toy. To compound the poor quality plastic and overall shoddy materials and construction, the camera came with no batteries, evidently directly from China, and no memory card adaptor, both of which are needed to operate the camera. You can do much better than to buy this product. The only reason I do not return it is that another reviewer stated that he was still waiting for his refund after doing so. If the camera sold for about one fourth what it does, it would still not be a good value.I believe this one was the first ordered an it did not work properly. It recorded in the house but not when it was on the helmet.
