Would this camera work for duck hunting? My son would use the clip for his cap. We know it is not water proof. Thanks.

I imagine that it would, once you got the correct elevation set on the Hat Clip. I use it to film video of R/C model planes in flight.

Yes in my opinion it would work just fine. The sound quality isn't the best but if ur not using it for that that reason it will be great. I use it while im playing airsoft and it's been great no complaints besides the sound quality which for the money u spend really isn't bad at all. So ya I would go for it

I used it for bike riding, hiking, deer hunting,I think because of the fast movement you might have a little blurring, also the sky is a little bright, watch out shooting towards the sun but should be able to get some good shotsand good luck on the hunt

Well, I used mine in the rain on a tripod pointed at a bird feeder. We got a MAJOR rain (historic flooding) and my camera died. Returning for warranty service; I'll cross my fingers that Bushnell will replace it.

This is not sold as an exterior video camera. That said, if the area is really sheltered from rain (like a porch), it probably would be OK. Really depends on where you live. If you live in a foggy area, I wouldn't use this outside at all. This camera is NOT weather-proofed, so using it outside might void any product guarantee. You can talk OR listen, but not at the same time--I think

I am a turkey hunter but not a big game hunter, I use this for Duck and Goose hunting and it is awesome. For waterfowl it is a "Home-run", for shooting a bow or rifle for turkey or big game......probably not the right blind. You can unzip the side windows and the front part slides down and when we get up to shoot geese, we just throw the front down and start shooting. Not sure that would work for a turkey or deer, at least the ones in Colorado or Nebraska it probably would not work.

No idea! - suggest you look at the Pentax web site. I saw a recommendation of the camera in a Landrover magazine some 6 months ago, and it seemed to meet my needs off-roading and fishing in wet weather.

I would agree with everyone and mine worked perfect for snorkeling, hiking/biking and just as a regular camcorder. Video quality is very good.Caveats:- sound is not too great (if it's important)- I would add "wasabi" set of 2 batteries and charger, I bought it here at Amazon- Mounting options: instead check mounts for iON camera's carried by Walmart, they seem to fit by thread and look better than JVC provides. I did not use them yet but want to check.

I have not dived deep with it yet. However the waterproof case appears quite capable. I did drop the camera in some deep mud once without the case. I immediately took the battery out and held my breath for a day while it dried out. Water had gotten in pretty deep yet it survived. Either I was lucky or the camera can take a little moisture. I also own the SJ1000 and the two are very similar in their cases, apparent innards, menu system, and mounts. The mounts that come with these are good for nearly any situation but of course this greatly depends on the application for which you will use it. There is no window suction cup so if you intend it for a dash cam you will have to get one separately. If you intend it for a helmet there are straps that should suffice. I mount mine on a bike sometimes and found that the accessories are not designed to wrap handlebars very well, but with all the odd attachments I found a way to make it work. The quality is very good. There is a small bit of grain if the settings are not on full quality. Of course if you expect do any post production image stabilization then that will crop down a bit. Carrying the camera by hand will make for a bumpy, dizzy video, no matter how stable your hand is. I have a monopod which I often attach mine too. Carrying the monopod naturally has a stabilizing effect. If you want an accessory I would recommend a telescoping action cam pole. That way you can extend it out in front of you for those great panoramic selfies, or lift it up above a crowd for a bit of an aerial view.

No it's "splash proof" which is only light splashing. Actually the camera part will probably do ok. But the microphone will probably die once it touches the lake. Splash proof is only light rain or a splash while drinking water.

From my research it looks like this only take still shots and cannot be used as a webcam. I hope this helps. Thanks for looking.

I believe that they now sell this item on the go pro web page with what they call the clip.it is included. It lets you mount your camera on the back of your baseball cap etc.check out the website.

it was new and i made a waterproof case for it because i heard that it wasn't waterproof in the ocean and so i didn't want to take any chances. It was an ok camera, low definition but i lost it in the ocean while surfing so it didn't turn out well. I ended up just getting a go pro. there are many other cameras out there, wait a little longer and buy the best product and make sure you don't drop it in the ocean. haha.

I believe that the camera can be used under water, BUT it has to be in a waterproof case. I am not sure how this "feature" makes it different from any other camera, but that is my understanding

I have had good results at closer range (100-250 yards) using my iphone5 to capture big game animals. I'm not a photographer, but at that range with a non-sky background I didn't have any issues. With a skyline shot in hotter temperatures you may have some degradation of your images. Best bang for your buck spotting scope.

No, if it works, which mine does not, it shoots poor quality video, and not at a very wide angle. I bought mine to put on my shotgun. It worked one time, and never again. Buy a GoPro, and forget this piece of junk.

The camera is water proof. I have used one for my work in harsh environments for some time now, and it is an excellent camera. Due to this, I bought one for my son.

I would say yes to either water or snow. Doesn't have image stabilization so a lot of bouncing around. You will not capture sound in the protective case. Also your PC will need to be able to process HD video or the video will be choppy. Not the cameras fault.

If you put your camera in it and it falls overboard, it should be fine until you can fish it out. I was kayaking on a lake for 3 days and it was fine, although it was always secured and never in the water.
