The cam has only 3 buttons, one must press in specific combinations, so they can be programmed and sterun accordingly. Here is the beginning of the manual a must as there is nothing selbterklärend. When I had it then turns on a better picture expected for a Full HD camcorder. Most recording is a bit grainy, and light the camera needs very much. Poor contrasts or too strong contrasts arise when you have eg bright sky and dark ground, then quickly one too bright and the other is too dark. Did she even kept her heart pounding in the bathtub, to see whether it is really waterproof - and yes, it worked. The recording has to work, but turn the light conditions must be ideal to produce really good shots. Otherwise, it will quickly "washed" in the truest sense of the word. When sound is wind noise when cycling or loud noises and the like very well cushioned, so it is really very suitable for Action. For the normal recording of language in turn etc have the sound could have been better and acts quickly dull. Even attachment to mobile devices, the head arm, etc could have been handled better, rather than just mt accompanying tapes or a pipe clamp for handlebars. After all, is exactly the fun on this camera, as it was to have ready for all possible situations something to fix. That would certainly lift the quality deficits in picture and sound. Too bad missed opportunity. So you are forced to improvise even when you want to have the camera in action mi. Unfortunately, there is no remote control so you can control the camera basically just right in your hand and use and not for example the bicycle helmet or other mobile devices. Therefore my conclusion is not very positive. For children camera eg I could ignore at a significantly lower price than all the flaws, because the camera can stand water, is very good at rapid shots here and hide annoying noise caused by wind and weather well. For an adult claim but all is clearly not enough and then also again clearly too expensive. Unfortunately, only two stars.
