I'll save you the time- I've downloaded and tried just about every screen recording app there is, both free and paid. Claquette is the finest of the bunch - it is simple to use, precise, fast and does a fantastic job of converting the recorded video to APNG without losing fidelity. My main use case is screen recordings for QA and posting video to GitHub issues in aPNG or animated GIF. With all the other apps I tried, the videos would become slightly blurry and colors would be off. Claquette handles this perfectly! Developer was also very helpful in tracking down a small bug - thank you!

This app's been around for 3½ years, but there's no comments or reviews? The app only has one review in the MAS (5 star).
In 2013 it was reviewed by Macworld. http://goo.gl/DN90Vj

Surely it's worth ten bucks if it works well. Perhaps the lack of a trial has deterred users?
