    Camera came with faulty screen. By the time we discovered it didn’t work and returned from vacation, Best Buy’s return/replacement policy was expired.

    I'm giving this a 1 star review, not because of the quality of the recordings, but because it's so difficult to use and there were no instructions in the box
