You just want to know about the camera, right?
There’s also an option to shoot with different color filters (I ignore this).
The camera lasts 60 minutes on one charge, which is longer than you might think.

I plug it in to charge via micro USB about once a month.
To view them, you connect the card with the included USB-connectable reader to your system.
It pops up as a folder on your desktop.
The date is often incorrect on my pictures, but I think this adds to the overall charm.
The camera is a conversation starter in itself.

And yet, as something of a gift, the photos and videos are beautiful in their own right.
For all those times, my camera is there, documenting without distraction.
