Questiondoes it have night vision
Asked 2 years ago by mj.
- Answer Yes it does. It does really well indoors and just ok outside. But it's been fun taking videos of the night time animals. Just wish it would do one long video instead of making a bunch of short videos from one recording.

QuestionHOW LONG THE BATTERY LAST WHILE RECORDING AND TO CHARGE? NORMAL, I MAKE VIDEOS OF 10 TO 15 MINUTES CAN THIS CAMARA LAST THAT LONG RECORDING? CAN THIS CAMERA TAKES A 128GB OR BIGGER SD CARD OR WHAT KIND OF SD CARD TAKES? I HOPE IT'S NOT A MINATURE CARD.
Asked 3 years ago by TROSKY.
- Answer With a full charge, you can get through a 30-40 minute performance or program. If you record in burst you might make the battery last longer. Also, you can record and have the camera connected via the USB connection. If you choose to record for more than 10 minutes, about 8-9 minutes will record and the rest will continue with the next mp4 file. So the limit is around 10 minutes. I used a 128 Gig SD card for this camera, a regular one.
