I read with disappointment the review stating the camera only lasted a few weeks....how long is it expected to function for use?

The first time ibought the camera it broke after before I was able to use it even once. Then I contacted the company and they did an express refund/exchange on Anazon and now my camera works everytime. Keep in mind Amazon guarantees everything. You can always return and rapid exchange if you have a problem. The carmera on my cat took very shaky video but with clever editing it's been fun to watch my cats adventures

We have been using the camera on our little dog (Terrior - Chihuahua mix), so far, so good. Still works after 4 months

Mine still works as it should and I am using it on a treeing walker coon hound. So far I have managed to get it back in good shape.

I'm sorry, I don't remember for certain how mine worked...or didn't work. I sent it back after about an hour of trying to get it to even be recognized by my computer there was very little (if anything) that DID work the way it was supposed to. I suggest you do the same. Return it and remember...most of the time...you get what you pay for. I ended up buying a very nice camera I'm pleased with on ebay for something like $20-$30. Good luck.

Wow! Thanks Blue!!! I was about to throw out this camera. I owned it for 21 months. Once I removed the memory card, it worked perfectly. I guess that's what I get for purchasing a generic memory card.

I would not recommend to buy this camera at all. I bought 5 of these cameras and 2 stopped working in less than a year and was replaced by the company (warranty) but the replacement quit working after a few months. One other camera quit working after a year (out of warranty). A camera power supply of one the camera quit working too recently.

I have used it only a couple of times, but the last time was in Hawaii in December. I set it to take a picture every 3 secs and I let it run for about 45 mins. I'm sure it will run continuously as long as the batteries are charged and the camera card has plenty of storage room.

My experience: return/sell the camera and buy anything else. Sorry I couldn't help more - but the camera is very poor quality.

Bob, I have had my camera for about 3 weeks. But I would say it all depends on the way you use it. For me it last all day taking picture around Disney. Then I charge the battery every night. Hope that helped.

I had to exchange two of them. Unfortunately they tried to repair on of them and it still did not work. I had to send it back and then the conveniently forgot about it. It took almost eight weeks for me to get the replacement. So yes, they will replace one camera but don't expect great customer service.

you got me there...I've had the camera about 5 weeks & have not taken even 32GB of photos yet. So I really don't know. I know the pix are suberb

Unfortunately, camera didn't work properly (from the very beginning). I did not bother to return it, my fault. My only suggestion, if applicable, buy it locally. Good Luck

This camera has an internal battery but only lasts a few seconds for me. I assume so it will continue to operate if there is a short momentary lapse in power? I see other users are getting much longer battery life.

Well, the laptop bit the dust and I never used the camera so I can't really answer that question. I tried to get the laptop fixed but it is D.O.N.E. - cannot be fixed. It's headed for the trash heap. It was good while it lasted.

Thanks for the heads-up. I was ready to buy this camera until I started reading about the battery situation. Looks like a good camera but unfortunately, if you can't keep it powered up, it just becomes drawer junk.

Donald I would be lying if I told you.. I bought the camera as a gift for my mom to use.. I know that she likes it.. I have only used it a couple times but I thought it was very quick..

I had a issue with my camera and the seller was kind enough to send me a new unit. I sent it back about (2) months after I purchased it. The seller was more than willing to work with me and to make it right. I think their warranty is (6) months. This is a high quality camera and software.

I would not recommend it. For a little more money, you shoukd invest in a better quality camera that will last longer.
