I wish they had more stuff in my area. Top-notch MSC! Hate their website, tho. Confusing, overloaded and slooooowww.

@Boutique Did you get your glasses yet? I got them today, charged them, and experimented a little. The time-set function didn't work properly. I could change the time but then the time would not move forward after that.

I did and had problems with the on/off until I got down the blinking sequence. My issue was that the video was cut up into 2 and 3 minute segments ( I filmed 8 minutes without stopping). This is all new to everybody so it is a work in progress.
I realized using a phone app with these glasses on is going to be a challenge as I wear readers. ...

I will upgrade the firmware to increase the maximum clip length to 10 minutes and let Brandon know how that goes. Without that upgrade, you can only set the clip length to 5 minutes at the most.

I haven't had any trouble with the button control yet but I always worry. I am keeping my fingers crossed that I don't mess up during the actual shop.

Did you find the recording angle to be way off because of the placement of the camera lens?

I upgraded the firmware. It was easy and now my video clips can be as long as 10 minutes. I really need to practice and figure out the angles, though. Filming things that are far away should be no issue but it will be hard to capture something on my phone because the filming angle is totally off.
