No. It last only an hour or one and half an hour of continued recording. At six months of recharging batteries, this time is reduced to 15 minutes or less. After 9 or 12 months of use, no charge. Good video with sound.

It does have. One thing I don't like is that it can record up to 30 minutes at a time. So if you want to record longer than that, you need to stop at 30 minutes point (or automatically stops) and restart the recording.

Yes it has an option to record audio also. The audio quality is very good but I don't record it, only video. Mine records in a loop just fine. (It continues to record over the oldest recording on card when it is full)

Not in my tape player. Must be charged externally (overnight in my house for me) but charge seems to last a while.

No it doesn't record audio but I've had it for many years now and it's never stopped working. Best color video security recorder I've ever bought for the price.

no audio jack, it can record in full Hd(1080p) and video available in AVCHD & MP4. Hope this information helps Michael.

It will record audio during video. Ive not triewd zooming so cant answer your second question. I have to say that as time goes by,m Im less enthused byb this camera. It was cheap, being an old model, but I dont think Id buy it again. It takes too long to zoom in or out and serches way too long to focus in lower light conditions.

Yes the audio records while recording a video. While you can zoom before recording a video, you can not zoom during recording.

Yes, the device records both video and audio in default mode, but audio recording can be disabled if desired.

It records video but no audio. The picture quality is very nice. It is an effective peice of equipment.

I haven't timed the duration of the recording, but after an estimated 2 hours ether the battery died or my card was full. I believe I was using a 2, 4 or 8 GB card. I believe it will record continuous if left plugged in.

Only video, and not very well. I ended up returning mine due to inconsistent recording. I had bought this for a family situation and though the "event" occurred, when I checked to see that we had gotten it on video, all I had was 5 sec. of me plugging it in and then nothing. I would try another brand.

The battery lasts about 1hr 1/2 to 2 hrs straight recording. You can not charge the battery while recording. I bought an extra battery. Sound quality is great with the camera. Worth the money I spent.

Hi there Chris - Yes there are two recording modes - voice-activated and continuous recording. With the continuous recording mode it will record sound and video. Please let us know if you have any other questions.

I will change to charge mode or data mode when the USB cable is plugged in. It will not record. That is why I regret buying this camera without thorough research. I use this camera for my motorcycle rides. I can only record as long as the battery lasts.
