Tell me about it.....is it difficult to use or download? Is it durable? How is the picture? What is the best mount to use. Any tips??? We'll be using it mostly for duck hunting and bass fishing. Also, I got an 8GB memory chip. How much will that hold and do I need more?

If I can use it its pretty simple great pictures and video but you cant zoom so you need to get the ducks in close everything looks far away while duck hunting.

Not very good detail for action shots longer than 20 yards. I use it for fishing and it's hard to see what's really going on with the fish strike too far from the boat. Anything farther than about 15 yards and you can not even tell what type fish it is, it has no ability to zoom. It takes some getting use to for still shots as you need to be much closer to it than for normal camera's.
Very good clarity and easy to use for anyone with any IT skills.
Seems to be durable.
The battery will not last as long as stated. After missing a lot of action on a very good day I now carry three batteries and a charger.
Don't like the fact that you can't see the shot you just took unless you get the LCD backpack (drains the battery quicker) or the wifi backpack and carry your phone (don't want to carry my I-phone in my pocket while on the water)

I have one wrapped under the tree. So, I don't know much. But, about the "stuff looks far away" comments - that's because it's a wide angle lens. If it had a telephoto lens, stuff would look closer. But, you'd miss most of it, because it would be zoomed in on a small area. You have to pick one or the other - you can't have both. Wide angle works better for most "action" situations.
