you're lucky that's all the problems you're having ,it depends on the camera you're using this doesn't work at all,it also depends on what frame rate you're using and which camera you're using it with, 24fps,23.98 on some camera won't work properly tell me which camera you're but before you do so,try changing the frames rates you're your camera

The only way I see this happening is if you have two monitors. If you only have the one monitor like me, You can switch from camera to camera in just seconds like i do. But i dont see it happening with the one monitor. I think this is the best camera system that they have to offer, because ive had nothing but problems with there other ones in the past. I also thought about buying another monitor.

If the subject is moving, hit the scene button (just right of the screen on the camera) twice and chose the third icon from the left on the top row (action shots). For any shot it is important to choose which Scene fits what you are shooting. Another important function is to hit the +/_ side just to the right of the OK button. You can then set up or down to set what used to be known as the F-stop, how much light is introduced. Those 2 functions are pretty much all I use on this camera. And I have been getting some really nice shots. This camera is the best camera I have used!

Yes !and it lets you use many of the camara features. Try the multiple exposure mode.

If you don't want the camera to decide things for you then you have to avoid some of the automatic and scene modes. In P, Tv, Av, and M modes you will have the option of selecting macro. In Auto mode the camera decides for you. That's what auto means - you lose many of the options.

Larry, I have done the exact thing you have been doing. I need/prefer optical viewfinders also and can't find one to suit my needs anymore. I wrote an email to Canon about a year ago, when I was camera shopping, asking why they are eliminating it on most of their new (new at that time) Powershots. The reply I got was that they're responding to consumers who are demanding larger LCD screens and don't need optical viewfinders. I replied that they should start reading forums to see how many people are lamenting the lack of viewfinders. Some people don't like to use the LCD because it eats up battery power. Others, like me, live in the desert with bright sunshine that renders the camera pretty useless with only a washed-out LCD screen. I asked the person at Canon to pass on my pleadings to Canon powers-that-be to not eliminate optical viewfinders. I also need a Powershot size with 6x or higher optical zoom for my business use, and I love my A720IS, but that was discontinued in 2008 so I can't buy another. I can't afford $300+ for a new camera. Canon appears to no longer care about consumer comments and just goes with the flow. I have three Powershots, but may have to move on to a non-canon if I can find a camera that better matches my needs. I can't be loyal to Canon if they no longer offer what I'm looking for.

I am not sure , I didn't use that feature. It was for a customer. Try holding down a memory button when you have the desired color combination. Thanks, Chris

You can set it based on the type of picture.. I have mine on burst and it takes it instantly. There are also advanced exposure settings and color preferences.

I learned that more pixels does not necessarily mean better pictures. What really matters is the size of the sensor. In compact or even superzoom cameras the sensor used is a small one.

Go to the camera menu and then to settings. Maybe the brightness and contrast are too high. If not is not fixing it I would call Swann tech support at 1800 627-2799. they are open 24/7. If they can not fix it they will replace it if is still within warranty. Good luck

you can allocate how much space is available for event, motion detection and normal recording in the settings. I had an 8gb card which got filled completely, I just installed a 32gb a month ago and there is still room available. I will continue to monitor if the camera can use all of it.

Call the tech support, they were really helpful and will configure your camera for you and also answer any questions you may have. Hope this helps, Mark

You can select image sizes of 5 or 12 Mega Pixel. I believe the CMOS sensor is 12. I have 23 cameras and this one takes the best pictures and video by far. You will be very happy with it. The batteries last about 12 months also.

WOW - I have struggled with this and I believe I found at least a temporary answer. I changed the EXR mode from AUTO to D-Range priority. It now focuses as I would expect and hunting is at a minimum. Even in taking photos. I suspect somehow the AUTO mode is overloading the system logic. I would love to hear if this helps others.
