    The compact design is especially nice and storage is not a problem even on my bike. Super easy to use even for the novice users.

    It’s easy to use as a first time user. I’d recommend to use it as a camera, over your other expensive cameras.

    I was very disappointed in this camera. The battery does not last. After 1 hour of use, the camera dies. I tried changing the settings to Dacron battery life, but that only gave an extra 15mins of use. I will be exchanging this crappy cam.
