Photos are saved onto a SD card (secure data) which you buy separately. Most newer computers (within 5 years) have a slot for an SD card. You can pick up the camera, look at the back, and it will show the number of pics that have been snapped. On/off switch on the back, for when you are home.

I was not at all happy with this device. The batteries in mine lasted only hours and it took photos repeatedly every second or so even in a totally dark room. You know it has taken photos by the number shown on the small screen. You can view the photos by connecting the camera to a computer through a USB cord. The camera memory shows up as an external drive on your computer. I threw mine out because of problems mentioned. Got no help from supplier.

It is saved to an SD card. You can look at the LCD display ob the rear to see how many photos were taken. It only shoots stills but they're in series.

I honestly cannot tell you my man because I tested it to check the quality of the camera first then I plugged it into the computer and it didn't want to be recognized by the computer. I had to do a little tweaking here and there and finally it was recognized and I gotta Tell you that once I saw the quality of the pictures and the video, I was so disappointed and didn't even bother using it anymore. Sorry brother

The camera does not save footage, as in a movie. However, with the alarming function turned on it will allow you to save everything that happened in front of the camera (movement) which caused it to take a series of pictures. The length of the series can be varied, I have mine set to take 4 or 5 pictures over 5 seconds. This allows me to see what tripped the alarm and sent the picture to my email and hard drive and to follow up. You can save these posts as long as you want, the only downsize would be the eventual running out of space on your computer.

Does the camera stop after capturing 2GB of video or does it start a new file? I realize that it is very rare for most people to shoot a single clip that is longer than 5 minutes, but if the camera quietly quits capturing after 2GB, then that might be a problem.

If you have a memory chip in the camera, you can set it to record. Then you can review the captured video on the card.

I have captured still photos while recording by pressing the shutter button. the picture is captured and the recording continues. I was also confused with this, but when I reviewed the video I eventual saw the pictures taken after the video play back. Yes, I agree this camera is awesome. if you have a smartphone or tablet the sony app turn them into remote controls for the camera through Wi-Fi. I am sorry, if too much info, please disregard.

There is a micro SD slot. I stored all of my pictures on a 32GB card and run a slide show off it.

You are correct, there is a microSD card that installs in the belly of the unit. You start/stop recording by pressing a very small button next to the card slot. I purchased a class C10 SD card as it records faster so the video is smoother than a less expensive card. After flying, you can put the card in your phone, or computer to play back the video. It's very good considering the cost of the unit, w/ auto-adjusting contrast and exposure. Enjoy.

If I think your asking how do I load the film correctly then my answer would be it's a digital camera. No film, it records your pictures on a memory card. If this was your answer then you should check you tube for videos on using your style camera. If you wanted to know where do you stick the memory card the you can open a sliding door on the bottom of the camera.be careful because when I try and do this I accidentally hit the power bottom and the I feel the lens start to come out and I worry it might hurt the zoom. So I hold the camera by it's. Sides. If you have further questions Let me know. I can also send you a video to show you.

Does it take still pictures? Yes. There are seperate buttons for s.till photographs and live movie recording. Does it record audio only (such as music)?? As far as I am aware, it does not do that as a user selected item. I would be happy for someone to correct me if I am wrong. All the same, one could simply record video without any video input, and then turn that video file into audio only (after the recording is made) by using a program to strip out the audio only into its own mp3 file. Only takes a minute.

no you can't record on device itself but you can download program called Dorgem and it will record pictures in time intervals as you like it..every 3 seconds or more and it's activated by movement.I am sure there is another programs wich can record videos from the camera

There is an on-off button on top of the pen, press it to turn on the camera pen. The next step is to distinguish a single shot from a continuous video. 1. If you press the button about 3 to 5 seconds, a light will turn on. If you want to turn it off, you press the button about 3 to 5 seconds. 2. To take photo. Make sure the light is on. Press the button on the top of the pen one time. The light will flash one time indicating that you took one picture. 3. Video Record. When the light is on, press the button about 3 seconds. The light will start to flash indicating that you are recording. To end the video, press the button one time.

This model will not record, it is just a viewer, you have to press the button in order to activate the viewer when there is someone outside.The model that will record and save the picture in the Micro SD card is PHV133012. Thanks!

I have had this issue when I put the chip back in the camera after taking photos off of it and don't delete the old photos properly.Simply have the camera re-format the chip and the issue goes away.

Not to be stupid, but will this camera pause? I mean can you pause while recording and then start again without it being a new movie? Thanks

usually the first few shots are okay, but after that, the camera has a long processing time between shots. there's nothing that can be done about it. it's a memory issue.
