What about leakage when recording?

At least for me, they fit very, very tight. I don't believe leakage should be a problem with these.

Hi Coralio,No, this is not normal. Having a small kid I experienced that these recorders are very impact/pressure resistance and what you've received sound like a defected product.Cheers, Pejman

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.

There is a pressure release on the ottom. No doesn't leak enough to merit giving it a bad review

Not to record, no. Unless I missed it somewhere. You get a new file whenever you start and stop recording.

It depends on what you want to record. If the volume is adequete, it will record with no problem. I hope this helps.

Yes the recording quality difference is very noticeable. Also, it protects your microphone from moisture damage.

I bought two of these cameras and they recorded in 5 minute intervals. In other words, they recorded five minutes, closed the file, and continued with another file. I tried different SD cards to see if that was the cause. I tried 16 Gb and 4 GB cards to see if the card mattered. I preferred a camera that would record a file continuously, so I did not investigate further.

I found a video that might give people a sense of how much sound leaks out.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uafYNCrPFrs

hey Jeff, It loses all of everything u recorded if batteries die while recording! Recommend you purchase the a.c. power adapter to alleviate this issue. Harley

Sound and video should record at the same time. Sound won't be good and there may not be much volume.

The previous answers are correct. Recording over or simply being silent in the record mode will edit out what you no longer want on the tape. Hope this helps.

It really is an issue. It takes several seconds to determine distance and volume level before starting the recording. You never really know when the recording is kicking in.

When recording anything more than a 5-10 minutes, I need to let it "warm up" by first recording some throw-away content for about one to two times the length of time of what I ultimately need to record. But after it is warmed up, it is fine indefinitely (or until I run out of disk space).

Dont know if this is the problem but I had a lot of cracking noise and the cord on my old one was damaged. OR if you have feedback of your own voice (kind of an echo) could your recorder also be recording from its mic?

You are so right. I did not realize this until i went to play back what i had just recorded and discovered it was not there. That's when i realized i had reached the end of the tape without knowing. If you get an answer to your question please let me know. I assumed it was a flaw in the design i had to live with. More power to you at least you asked the question. Good luck ~Kindly~Renate

The answer to your question is: "NO". That is only one of the reasons I returned the recorder.
