    I bypassed the 7 and I couldn’t be happier I did. This is a fantastic upgrade and the retractable mount is genius.

    Great picture, I guess, can only see it on my phone because you have to have a program on your computer to view the content. And cannot download the program on either of my computers. Do not expect to pull the SD card and watch your vids like every other camera in the world. Don't expect to use standard camera mounts, will not work. Everything is an upsell. Battery is gone after 30-40 minutes and will not work while hooked to a power source, will overheat and shutdown. Solution, buy extra batteries, but special mounts. Side button is hard to push, not glove friendly, but the top button will activate while you have a grip on the camera trying to get the side button to push.

    The last version I had was #4. It came a long way since. In particular the connectivity improved a lot.

    The screen started giving a yellow back glare after a day of use with a black lining on the left side of the les screen.Not sure if it was a manufacturer issue or what. The footage quality was great the camera itself was great. Shame the led screen quality wasn’t as good.
