So how well does the camera react to record once motion is detected? Im really debating whether to purchase the product, I dont want to buy something worth hundreds of dollars if it cant even simply capture motion as soon as its detected. null

There is NO WIRELESS CAMERA out anywhere that gets this good video/photos period. The quality is unbeatable as far as security is concerned. The slight drawback is that you cannot record a 30 minute intrusion without breaks. Camera is not designed nor intended for continuous video. The battery would deplete in a day if it could. You have set times for recording from a few seconds to 2 minutes. Remembering that 4 minutes a day should keep the camera working for over 3 months. 

You also have options on how sensitive the motion detection is. Remembering that an object going across the cameras field of view will trip much faster than an object coming toward the camera. How you position the camera will make a big difference on motion triggering. However, mine all had absolutely no problems. I have read reviews about how it does not trip with motion, but I will bet anything it boils down to operator error. I say, its not that it doesn't work, it's more like they don't know how to make it work. 'Taint rocket science.

The cameras capture motion perfectly. Just set the video length to 30seconds, I find that is the best setting to capture movement in multiple situations.
