Hi April, it is not motioned sensored and I have not been able to use it because I cannot find a storage chip small enough. I wish I could return it...before I would by i the only recommendation I have is try to find the storage card first. research hope this helps and good luck.

Ted D. gave false information. The camera itself is not motion activated. But if you attach it to a computer and use it as a webcam, then it can be motion activated depending on the software you use to record.

The camera has the capability to do motion sensing but it ultimately depends on your DVR supporting motion recording. So the answer to your question is yes.

Well the longest I have recorded without stopping is 5 minutes, but I'm not sure of the time. Check there main website for specs. I love this camera and its worth buying. Make sure you get an external battery.

Using opensource software, I have been able to record on motion detection. I believe the SW allows you to set it up to record only at certain times.

about 30 days, it depends on how often you record. I have mine motion active so the recording will last longer

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

On a 16 gb card, about 9 minutes. The camera records in AVI format, which is not compressed like mpeg. It does decent video, but the time restriction means that you will need another camera for longer videos.

Yes - it has motion detection in the sense that it starts recording when motion is detected. It doesn't just continuously record...it only records when it detects motion

It should record as long a there is movement. I believe this can be set up.

Yes this camera systems will record up to (2) weeks of recording. You can set the camera up to record Continous, Schedule, and Motion Detection. This system come with a hard drive memory already installed. But make sure you do not have the overwrite feature on when recording because when the hard drive is full it will overwrite what was recorded and will start all over again. This system also come with an USB port whereby you can download your recorded pictures onto a USB adapter that will you have to purchase separtely.

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.

It records as long as it detects motion and then for 5 minutes with no motion. After 5 minutes, if there is no motion, it will shut off until it again detects motion. But you can change the preset so the camera records continuously regardless of motion if you wish.

yes the system can be setup to record upon motion. i have mine setup to record constantly, so i don't have much experience on how exactly to do it. i also know that you can set it up to email you if a camera is triggered by motion. hope this helps

What options does this camera have in regard to recording time (1 minute, 3 minute, 5 minute clips or other?)

yes - funny, I bought this camera specifically for my bike commute, which is about 30 min...one thing to note: if you record for over 30 min at a time it will chop it up into 2 separate videos, which can later be merged/edited if needed

yes you can record 8 continuous hours because I leave mine on in my office and it is setup for motion sensor recording continuously

The camera is not motion activated. It can be heat sensing or time lapse. One or the other not both.
