Does it have motion detection or does it continuisly record.

motion detector and records for 4 minutes when triggered. can be re triggered by continued motion. I have been very happy with it. the infrared function, however is questionable

yes, it does have motion detection. BUT be careful where you place the camera because if it is aimed across the room towards a window, it will record everytime a tree limb moves.

According to the timer on the screen, it appears to be recording even when the room is dark and there is no one there but I'm not sure because I usually stop looking at the recording when the timer is still going and there is nothing but darkness on thescreen.

The camera itself only transmits video. The recording is done by whatever recording device you purchase. That device would have to have a feature for sensing motion which most have. So bottom line - this camera can be USED with a recording device that has motion sensing capability.

No, it is motion recording. You can set motion zone on the camera. Once motion detected it starts record, also includes 5 sec. before motion. It keeps last 7 days motion video. Hope it helps.

Not sure exactly. There is a phone app in general. And I thought there was a feature that you could set it to auto record for 15-30 seconds after motion was detected.

From my experience, it will record the previous 10 seconds before the motion and the 10 seconds after the motion. If motion is still detected by the camera during the recording time, it will just continue to record until the motion stops and of course the 10 seconds after the motion stops.

It's just a camera, no sensors no recording. My dvr allows me to set it to only record when there's motion but that is based on when the picture changes not any sensors

hii read that this device has a blue light that comes on to let you know it's secretly recording....if that's so then the scene or screen changes somewhat. that's something i'd notice if it came on whenever there's movement. please clarify.

It does have the motion detection feature. Just go to "menu" -> "Camcorder" -> "Capture Mode". You will see both "continuous" and "motion detection" mode(with a hand icon). Once in the "Motion setting", you can have option of setting motion spot zone, detection window size, and motion sensitivity. If you want to use this feature while your car is at park but worry no power to the camera? A quick solution is to attach a portable battery. Just do a search on Amazon and get one that will power laptops. That's what I did for my own car. Cheers! It does have the motion detection feature.

It has motion capture, so no need for extra sensors. Just go into setting and set it to record on motion .

Unless you want to set a time to record, it will use motion detection to record. It is very sensitive. Mine picks up cats and sometimes wind blowing tree limbs.

The camera will need to be connected to a DVR . The recording feature on the DVR can be activated for motion detection.

hi when you chose the motion detection , your camera will start recording as soon as there is a movement in front of the visual fields . and if you have two cameras (front and back) it will still work that way for both of them .

It actually records video, you have several options, 1) always record, 2) setup a days/date/start and end time, or 3) when motion is detected. There are other features within the 3 options, but YES it records video.

No it does not, or at least none that I'm aware of. I only use it a few times. I does have recording capabilities on everything that can be monitor which is nice.

Both. You can set it to time lapse, but it is ALWAYS motion detected too. Its a great camera.

yes it records in motion detection. It only stores it in the card and the recording time is limited.

It has a small red light on the back that blinks when it is recording. The unit can be set to record either at set times or when motion is present.
