Review on πŸŽ₯ Optimize your Stop Motion Animation Experience with the Stopmotion Explosion: Complete HD Stop Motion Animation Kit, featuring Full HD 1080P Camera, Animation Software & Book for Windows & OS X by Theodore Huynh

The camera is good, the software is bad.

This set has a good camera and quite an interesting book, but the software sucks. There are better free apps if you use your iPad and check the App Store. "Onion Skin" didn't work - that was the feature that interested me the most. When you press the button to use the onion peel, the main window turns white. I have a standard Windows 10 PC, a normal Windows installation. There are also no audio functions. And if you have multiple cameras in your system and you select one, the dropdown list will always show the other camera when you select another camera. It reminds me of one of the old shareware utilities. We ended up using the built-in Photos app in Windows. Surprisingly, it has a built-in feature that allows you to add images to the timeline and add sounds. Since it's part of Windows, it's free and better than the software that comes with it. All in all very disappointing. However, this is a good camera. I should have bought this one.
