The camera works although the instructions aren’t particularly helpful. I haven’t managed to get the camera to replay picture or videos in its own right, I’ve had to remove the SD card and plug it into my laptop. This is somewhat inconvenient as I’m trying to capture our hedgehogs so the camera is close to the ground. I think it’s a bit of a design flaw to have the SD card exiting at the bottom of the camera.I haven’t managed to get the camera to record videos, it’s all a bit confusing, but it has taken still pictures. The initial pictures were all of me setting up the camera - surely I should be able to set it up and then switch it on? Probably my bad, I do need to re-read the instructions and try and make sense of them.The rest of the still pictures have been taken in both daylight and in complete dark. The daylight pictures are plenty good enough for purpose, good colour, nice and crisp. The night time pictures are in black and white and a bit washed out, but again plenty good enough to identify the garden visitors - just my dog doing what dogs do in the garden before bed time at the moment, but I live in hope. The night pictures are taken using night vision infrared light so you can’t actually see it and therefore it doesn’t startle the wildlife. The camera operation is almost completely silent so again no startling and deterring the wildlife.I’d be so much more comfortable recommending this camera if the instructions were better, and if I could figure out where I’ve gone wrong with the video. But I’m going to give it the benefit of the doubt and figure that it’s user error. If you want to capture pictures of the wildlife in your garden, or indeed anywhere else, this camera works. You could also use it for security purposes, but you’d have to either hide it well or adapt the bracket to fix into a wall or be out of reach.
