First of all audits conducted, it is indeed the original SJ4000 but not stamped SJCam release. The software version of 9.2.2014. Very good camera, results compared with Hero 3, no visible difference, not more nor less visible aliasing on the big screen. About 5 hours recording in HQ 1080p on my card 32GB Kingston quality 10. Supplied with all kinds of fasteners and supports, missing only the telescopic arm (purchased for 4.84) and the suction cup to the windshield. The buttons are tough waterproof housing that's true but they are also on the Go Pro, issue of seals I suppose, and it does not spend his time fiddling with either. The HDMI output is a bit random in the sense that it does not work every time as soon as we branch, we must sometimes disconnect and reconnect for the image or the live camera or film or pictures on screen . Webcam or security camera (PC), no worries, it is detected and drivers install Windows 7 instantly. The format is .mov videos, Apple QuickTime screen linked with the H264 codec. Reading is done both in VLC (which I highly recommend as free multi-format video player). So I am satisfied by this alternative to Go Pro for a very affordable cost. Commissioned in SYG, serious seller who quickly answered my questions with courtesy and in French, flawless packaging and no customs fees. Edition: The manual is in several languages except French: I translated it, see here http (: //) toutbox.fr/SJ4000
