How long can you record for? Is it continuous recording or motion activated?

No, the camera itself does not record. It capture image only. You may record on your phone, ipad or computer. If you need DVR function, additional software needed for PC.

it will record 2 hours after the motion sensor is activated, however - though the battery life would seem to be longer - you cannot get it to do anything beyond the two hours without reactivating it; I do not recommend it for the motion sense function, but otherwise it is good.

I dont know exactly how you plan to use it, but this allows you to calibrate the level of movement you want to trigger the recording, so you could say it is motion activated.

It depends on how you have setup the recording. If it records constantly, with 16 cameras, you may get 10 or 11 days. If its set to record only when motion is detected, you may get 3 or 4 weeks.

Yes, the camera can be programmed to trigger recording based on the motion. depending on activity, 32g can last you from couple weeks to the full month or more. Hope this helps. Its a great unity - however, I have the same one with the TV unit, its a bit easier to manage the cameras.

Ive only recorded about 10 minutes straight. I would assume you can record as long as you want if you have the space on the SD card.

It will record for as long as it's in the air. Around 3-4 minutes of battery life. Get a good quality memory chip. Level 10

If you choose to record in manual mode, it can record for more than 70 min. ( Tested ). But if you choose to record in motion detect it only records "clips" of 5 or 10 seconds !! ( or snapshoots). In my opinion is very bad those options!!

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

Chip, those are options. Always on, only on if there is motion, or scheduled recording, or a combination of all three. You can also set the sensitivity of the motion and how long afterwards it keeps recording. Because it is digital when you say motion it actually records the 10 seconds prior to the motion event, so you don't miss anything. Again, the camera noise continues to be the biggest setback to the system.

According to the manual: The maximum continuous recording time is under 20 minutes. The maximum video file size is 1.8GB. When a video recording time is more than 20 minutes or a video file exceeds 1.8GB, a new video file is created automatically.

It records for 7 seconds, even when you want to record a shorter message. That's plenty long enough for this type of device. It's easy to change the message, too. Mine is quite durable--I've had it for 2 years, even dropped it on the cement, and it's still working fine.

32GB will record between 36 to 40 hours. I don't believe you can turn off the camera on or off on your phone app. There is also the limitation that you cannot review recorded video on the app. I could not make that option work for me. Other that that, these cameras are pretty good. When you set it up make sure you do not set the sensitivity on high on the alerts, since any motion will set it up. I have it set to low.

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.

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

I'm sure answers will vary , one the memory used and the battery, mine records for approx 2 hours , and it make a file at 59 min , then it will automatically begin a new file . I don't know why it does this but it works fine. it does tend to get a little warm when recording for a long period of time.

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
