Once you program it, it's very easy to use. Support for memory cards up to 512GB that can record a TON of video. The picture quality is pretty good. - You don't have to do anything to get a time-lapse video - it's generated automatically - Creates AVI video files that can be easily viewed on almost any computer Bad: - Requires 12 AA batteries (8 if you're not using a light) - Figure it out , as it requires little effort to set everything up - the menu system is not very intuitive (but not bad once you get the hang of it) - very poor quality attachments - no memory card included, not even a cheap 16G card - slightly overpriced in Considering the alternativesB Ott Line: I really like this camera and I was very impressed with the video but I was disappointed with the price. This very camera sells for about 40% less (under $200) under other brand names, even with the $30 discount currently offered for this camera, bringing the price down to about $260. They change the plastic outer casing, nameplate and start menu for each brand, but other than that this camera seems almost identical to cameras offered by other brands at a much lower price, and some of them even include memory. Map. So while I can recommend this camera for slow motion video (we're using it to record a house demolition project and will be using it again to document a new house build), I'd recommend buying it from one of the other brands available. I can't tell what the difference is in camera quality, recording, or even the software, but other brands can be bought for a lot less here at Revain.
