Mrs Frank-
So the mic and the button cam portion are responsible for the HD quality picture? Or is it the actual pvr portion attached to the battery pack? During playback I wish the playback were in HD because at times it seems somewhat grainy or cloudy. I am thinking of upgrading to the hd version, but wondering if I can get by with just getting the mic and cam attached to the cord.

Silver Certified, I own my own PV-500, and I do shops in and around the DFW area.
