Poor instructions, decent camera
This camera pen works just fine but it's somewhat difficult to figure out how to use it.The first thing is where does the MICROSD card go? It'd directly opposite the USB plug. The card slides ALL the way in until it stops. The contacts should be on the plastic, not facing you. The pamphlet that comes with it does not indicate where the card is supposed to go. I've include a picture of the card partially inserted.Next up, move the switch to the left for Video.Press and hold the button at the top and look at the lights on the back of the pen. The clip should be facing away from you. After a second, a bluish/amber light will be steady. When you let go of the button the blue light will blink 3 times.Recording is now started. It will run until the card fills up or the battery dies.Press the button once to stop recording. The amber light will light up when it has stopped and will stay lit.Press the button again to start a new recording. You can do this as many times as you have space on your card.Press and hold the button to power off the pen.I did not experiment with the photo or audio recording.You can plug the pen into a USB port with the card inserted or remove the card and place it in a reader. Both work.I did not try it with a card larger than 32GB. This will use probably a gigabyte of space every couple minutes, so you should get about an hour of recording with a 32gb card. I don't figure the battery will last much longer than that anyway.

Would be nice, but...
When it opened the box from amazon the parts were scattered all over. The product box was not shrink-wrapped or taped. Right away that was a bad signI tried to read the instructions but I could not understand what it was saying. It's quite obvious whoever wrote the English instructions does not understand English all that well.I inserted a micro SD card and played around with the buttons and tried pressing and holding and looking at the light on the back of the pen, but I still couldn't figure out how to do a continuous recording due to the poor instructions. I was able to insert the pen into a USB port and view the files, but all the video files were only a few seconds long.Additionally, all the files had a record date of 3/4/2000. There's no way to set the correct date and time as far as I can tell. The instruction booklet doesn't say.The spy pen also came with a USB cable, but it did nothing. The connectors do not line up with the connectors on the pen.If the manufacturer could re-write the directions in proper English so I knew how to actually operate this thing it would be a decent product. Until then, I'm returning it because it's essentially unusable for me.

The picture quality
This was a gift for someone that was going through some harassment from a co worker and he says the quality of the recordings is better than the surveillance cameras in the building. He is Very Happy

Had to return.
Our box did not contain a pen. So cant give a review whether it worked or not. Waiting for replacement.

NO CAMERA PEN!
I ordered this pen because it had next day delivery, and I needed it for evidence gathering on the following day.I got the replacement ink, the charging cord, the instructions, but no camera pen. Too upset to even ask for a refund or replacement. maybe it was overlooked when shipped, I want to believe there was no scam, but just upset now.

Very easy to use
It's very easy to use, and I like to use it to make business conversation memos so I don't miss out on details.
