    Picture quality is okay, however even on battery saving modes or balanced mode to conserve image quality and battery life it still seems to drain rather quickly. Other than that it does what its supposed to do

    AWFUL customer support. These cameras used to be great when they had a base station and Pro 2 series. I Would stay far away from these now.
