I have one and not really impressed with it, it has the zoom settings the 1x 4x 8x 1x you wont see anything after 10 yrds 4x makes 20yrds look 50 8x is blurry as heck, the procedure to start recording is crazy, hit power then have to wait so many seconds to hit it again to record, when powered on after 5 minutes puts itself into standby, same when recording which sucks, would not recommend to try to get hunting kill shots, just shot a nice buck and the video is junk...

Got mine today. Tried it out this evening. Not bad for all the more I've fooled with it. I bought the more expensive one. 1080 p. Will give it good test on Saturday while running dogs.
