Does it also take single shot pictures or just video ?

It's just Video. There's no viewfinder to set up any stills. We only used it during snorkeling, but were happy with the results.

No idea. We weren't able to get the software to work on our computer...we returned it.

It has a camera, which I have never used, and other reviewers were not crazy about.Sorry, I don't know about video recording.I just play music in mar, which works fine (but battery life is only a couple of hours.

Not Really. It's meant to take videos of things in front of you - not yourself.

Yes, it does take regular pictures. However, with my experience, the pictures are of very low quality. I have had better luck with taking video and grabbing a shot that I liked from that.

No it does not. It takes great photos without it. But the video is a little gelled.

It takes video just fine. I have only taken short videos. There are other type of cameras designed for mounting to bikes and helmets! This is an awesome camera. It takes incredible picts. Its small and easy to use! I have loved my and my son and his girlfriend both have one as well and love theirs! Definitely recommend!

It can do both. I use it mainly in the motion activated mode. But, you can set it up as a plot camera where it'll shoot so many seconds of video each day at a specified time. I own two of these and they've been great cameras for the money.

The camera is for videos only, but as a previous poster said, you can capture still photos. The quality of the still pictures leaves a lot to be desired though. The camera is a great little video camera because it is so small and takes good quality videos in its best quality mode.

It does take video, but I find it drains the battery much quicker then pics

Sorry it took me so long to answer.....it does video. This camera takes the best photos, especially close-ups.

None to speak of. You have several options. You can take multiple exposures. You can video and take pictures along the way. I have found the camera to be most flexible in the options you have. I hoe this answers your question.

This camera will take a burst of pictures if desired. However in just taking single pictures there is hardly any delay. Having a quality SD card helps as the pictures are saved to the card more quickly allowing the camera to be ready again.

Yes it take pictures but in every video the movie and volume never match. Yes it has 8 gig my biggest issue is the video & audio mismatch

The machine takes videos. But the software program allows you to capture single shots and print as photos from the video. It can be a bit time consuming but that might just be my slow PC. I covered a wedding for a friend on a tight budget and took the ceremony on video then printed photos from that.

Not exactly "single shot" but you can. The camera has two modes, Video mode, and lapse mode. In the second mode you can take single pictures by pressing two times the rec botton. Single pictures are only 2 Mpx. you can see examples :https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/32893218/526327_10201681768036374_150908314_n.jpg https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/32893218/1240608_10201662316910108_1763232116_n.jpg

You can operate your camera for single shots or videos in panoramic. Set you camera for photo and take the pic
