Yes it has a cut-out for the camera... You'll obviously need to adjust the unit to shoot video

yes you can but only if you are using it on Skype or something like that there isn't a switch on the cam per say but as i said if you are using skype you can mute it hope that helps or video quality is the best

yes-I did shoot video by accident but meant to take still photos. Make sure you read the instructions clearly before you start using the camera. I made the mistake of not doing so before my trip.

The cable has a loop on one end. You wrap the cable around something such as a table leg or something solid / permenant and feed the cable through its own loop. Camera is not blocked.

Yes, it can be used to trigger the video function. You will need to set your camera to video mode, enable wireless remote functionality, and set the remote to the "2" switch. For still shots while video is being taken, push the switch to the bottom on the remote to begin getting still shots.

Absolutely! And, it does a very fine job of it. Unfortunately you cannot review the video on the camera but you can play your video through your photography program on your computer. You must remember that video requires a faster memory card and a lot of memory!

I had my ipad in a case. I had to take it out because it blocked my camera. I am not sure what is going on. I watched the screen while I filmed. I did not have a problem. I would recommend a remote mike because while I could hear what was said on the video, it was nt best quality. I was filing from 10 to 12 feet away so I could get the whole stage.

Case does not block the flash, dont worry man! I've taken many photos/videos with no issues. I love mine and recommend it.

Tell the truth I haven't tried as when I shoot video the battery runs down soooooooooooo fast it is worthless. I would buy this camera if you are going to shoot videos. Mine will not hold the charge long enough to shoot videos unless you keep changing batteries. I am disspointed in the camera and have returned it twice to fix and still has not been solved. When it does work the video is clear as well as th pictures though.

It does block them yes. But, I've been using my camera this way for nearly a year without issue. However, there is a slightly more expensive version with air holes appropriately placed.

Not through the back since there isn't a hole, but you might be able to take a video using the front camera as long as there isn't a gap between the clear front cover and the camera. You could cut a hole in the back if you'd prefer to use that camera instead.

It does. I had not used it until I saw this question, but I opened the camera option and tested about 5 seconds of video. Worked fine. Hope this helps.

It does not effect the camera or flash at all. It takes perfect pictures and nothing is blocked. Love this case.

Brandon, We did get it to work with my camera, but it did not work for video which is why I bought it in the first place. So, I can't recommend it.

Yes you ABSOLUTELY can!!!! You just press the OK button to pause and resume recording. You press the Video Camera icon button to STOP recording completely. Hope this helps.

Yep, absolutely. It does not interfere with the camera lens. It does interfere with the flash projection a bit though, the same way that it would if you had a thick case on it.

I haven't, but it doesn't have any effect on video. If you can look around with the keyboard or mouse, this will work fine. Probably be pretty cool. I don't see why it wouldn't work. Kind of a lot of gear on your head though.
