Truthfully I don't know. All I know is that you can use it for a web cam on computer and take pictures as long as it's hooked to computer.You can check online for the brand and maybe it will tell you. It;s a Vivitar vivicam3350B
i think that the person who was saying this is a bad product should be ashamed just because yours was bad does not mean they all were. and besides why would you wanna try and mess up someone elses auction. that was rude..
