The Surge captures average images. They are OK, but nothing special. The speed of the camera's performance is nice, but I wasn't overly impressed with the end results.

I took pictures in all sorts of settings. Indoors and out, in sunlight, at dusk, close up and far away. Colors and exposure were mostly right. Images were a little on the soft side and somewhat grainy. Would I blow any of these images up? Nope. Wold I post them to Facebook, I guess.

Video

Video was also of average quality. It you really need to capture a moment, it's there and ready, but it's not like you're going to want to watch it on your HDTV. There was lots of grain present, some weird shakiness, and other odd motion-capture issues. I'd barely call the video YouTube-worthy, but sometimes you have to post what ya gots.
