Yes but not wireless if there's no internet or if you don't want it on the web

Yes you can have the camera record to the SD card and it should not care if it is on the network or not. You can remove the SD card and view the recordings on your pc. There is not a requirement to have it connected to the network for the camera to function.

It works without any computer connection. It records straight from your video source to a SD memory card.

No, Salty. Use a card if you want to record what is going on, and you don't have it connected to WiFi. With the app, your recordings and pictures are saved on your phone. You may be able to save the video to the card by changing the settings, but I no longer am using it, so I couldn't tell you if you can.

No, this recorder has no USB connection or card, so recordings cannot be downloaded.

Hi, yes it work like that, you need to choose recording time, 3 or 5 min. and it makes files 5 minutes and saves, until card is full, starts delete old files adding new, like 16GB it will be plenty for you, it take up to 32GB. My camera working so far no problems. If camera loses charge you will need to reset the time and date, but still will recorded and make files.Let me know if this is helpful.

Yes I actually had my wifi network go down and it still recorded to the SD card during that time so this works as long as you initially have it set up on a network. Also, I never allow cloud access to it. I use it only to record to SD and I also have it automatically ftp files to a server on my own network.

The recorder has no files of it's own. All your folders and files are on the memory card. Everything will be saved on the memory card up till the time the batteries die.

Nope SD card is only to take low quality JPEG images. All video recording is captured to the DV tape or to an external HDMI capture device.

Correct, this device is not direct recorder. You have to have a computer/laptop to run the software and to store the captured data.

HiOur units record continuously but in segments, until SD card is full the loops to record over what was previously recorded. Thank you Darren Brock

You can also use the SanDisk without a Computer. Just plug into your TV or VCR's RCA jacks and go.-Mike

There is a secure digital slot for removeable memory.I record to that removeable card and copy what ever I recorded to my computer.The other way is to use the provided cable to link up the whole camera to a computer.The sd card is by far the quickest and easiest.....

As far as I know you can Record as Long as your harddisk or card has enough space.I did an underwater shoot, about 1,5h as One shoot. I always keep it recording the whole dive.

Yes, its not fun though. The only way to re-record is to clear the memory... and that clears all 5 potential recordings. So make sure you have everything you want to put back on it backed up.

The only other way to see what has been recorded is to put the SD in a digital camera and use the camera to see the video. I don't know if the camera format would be compatible with the video. There is a good chance it would be.

If there's a limitation on recording time with this camcorder, I think it would only be limited by the amount of time that can be recorded on the SD card. I let mine run for an hour and a half recently and the only reason it stopped was because I turned it off.
