    • Brand: Vivitar
    • Model Number: DVR917HD-BLK-BB
    • Color: Black
  • Imaging
    • Image Sensor Type: CMOS (CCD and CMOS are the two main technologies used in image sensors. CCD, the older of the two types, turns analog light signals into digital pixels. This conversion happens without distortion, resulting in high-quality images. Newer CMOS sensors use transistors at each pixel to move electrical charges. CMOS sensors are typically less expensive, but also require more light to create distortion-free images.)
    • Digital Zoom: None (A digital zoom is accomplished electronically, with no adjustment of the camera's optics, and no optical resolution gained in the process. The existing data is not enhanced or added to, merely displayed at a lower resolution, thereby giving an illusion of an enlarged image.)
    • Optical Zoom: None (The optical zoom uses a combination of lenses that magnify the image prior to it being registered at high resolution by the imaging sensor.)
    • Image Stabilization: None (This feature helps reduce image/video blur or distortion that may occur from unsteady motion.)
    • Low Light/High Sensitivity: true (High sensitivity digital imaging devices are designed to work in low light conditions to produce a high dynamic range image.)

Q: Does sound record? Is there a jack for a remote mic?

A: It does record sound, although you will not get studio quality with the internal mic. It also has a place for a USB to be plugged in for an external Mic. In addition, if you have the camera plugged into a case....your sound will be gone....so keep that in mind as well.

Q: Can they connect to phones

A: Yes. Install the Vivitar Action Cam App on your phone then turn the camera's WiFi on. Connect your phone to the camera's WiFi signal then the App controls the phone via the camera's WiFi network. Be sure to use a new Micro SD no larger than 32GB card as older or larger cards sometimes will not allow the WiFi to turn on for some reason.

A: The wireless remote is not waterproof, the camera case has buttons on it allowing you to take pictures underwater.

Q: What is the average battery life?

A: Im saying maybe like 40 minutes im not sure... It does take a while to charge though. I suggest that you should charge it overnight.
