How exactly do you use these to capture video? Do I have it in my pocket, in my hand, or what?

The pen has a clip, like any pen, which would clip onto a shirt pocket. The camera lens is located above the clip, so it would film in the direction you are looking. It needs to be "standing" if not on a pocket, say in a pencil holder, with the "clip" facing in the direction you wish to film.

Yes you can snap stills during video capture. The GF5 also has the capability to pull screenshots from video during review.

No, Salty. Use a card if you want to record what is going on, and you don't have it connected to WiFi. With the app, your recordings and pictures are saved on your phone. You may be able to save the video to the card by changing the settings, but I no longer am using it, so I couldn't tell you if you can.

If you shop at Best Buy, go in with your recorder and tell them you think you need a micro SD memory card. Costco I think have these also. Both will work with you to make sure that the micro SD card will work. I have not needed one yet. Also the paper work tells you the correct one. Not sure were mine is but will look. Hope this helps.

if you used them on multiple cameras with multiple units you are going to need multiple units to capture 1 per every camera. You set up a wireless network between the camera and the unit you are using laptop or tablet

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.

I just returned them because I was having a lot of issues. I believe you can receive video on your phone but it was just too difficult for me. Sorry not much help.

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.

Interested in More details about how to handle such a small device (camera point; microphone point; Hand Balance). I would like to know about the micro card type used. Spare cards could be easily exchanged in the field of operations. focus and depth perception beyond 5 meters;

You are wasting your money... Your camera can do video to the best of its own ability with just the Sandisk Ultra SDHC cards. That's what I use.

I am still working on trying to record something. Not enough information on how to operate it.

These are simply cameras with a motorized mount so you can control them remotely. They do not have any onboard video storage. If you wish to record some video to be viewed later you will need a separate piece of software to record and save the video feed from these cameras onto your pc or mac's hard drive.

you should use memory card "Class 10" or "UHS 1". it will be good to record 60F/s. If You use Memory card under class 10, your clip will be lag, not smooth

Should be fine if your cameras have a hot shoe, if I ever have any questions involving my pocketwizards I go to pocketwizard.com. Great info with video tutorials
