Customer Review

NEGATIVE:
- DC in the assembly of a strap holder broke off - Material error in the brittle With Cheap plastic.
- In the dark it looks with the picture quality even from rather bleak.
-. The red LEDs for receiving display front (large) and back (small) can only be shared (de) activate. Who wants to drive around as flashing reindeer Rudolph?
- The "Quick Start Guide" does not address the operation of the G-sensor.
- I could give no improvement over 'automatically' account in "night" mode.
- There are external battery pack with on / off switch, for eg the Power Cube 8000 MiPow... Unfortunately, the recording is not automatically transition (u. Ends) when I press this button. With my other dashcam works.
- Sound is not adjustable, only the beep.
POSITIVE:
+ In a bright environment good / very good image quality. Because of the mentioned weakness in the dark I have raised the basic level of brightness in the Menu.
+ Very important: very compact dimensions, therefore unremarkable: LxWxH = 66x38x38 mm.
+ The included battery lasts for almost 2 hrs. In the highest video quality. Therefore use as cam action possible. (I use a micoSD card class 10 for video.)
+ In the menu you will find a lot of screws where you can turn around depending on the application. Very good: depending on how the camera is attached, the camera automatically rotates the image (can be disabled).
+ LCD Monitor helpful and when installed. Operation. Videos run smoothly.
+ Recording takes place in the usual format .mp4.
PS
* Date / Time only via GPS (automatic) adjustable.
* There is a firmware update on the manufacturer website.
* For operation as dashcam is actually embarrassed to a very long USB cable into the power supply (u. This into the cigarette lighter) is placed. Anyone wanting to use GPS, is married with this cable, because the receiver is to it. But I use a rechargeable battery pack (for. Ex. Of MiPow) and have secured him behind the passenger's sun visor. The connection is via a small USB cable with cable drum (z. Ex. Of Hama).
* When aligning dashcams make sure that the lens is facing down rather u. Never upwards. Otherwise, the automatic pegelt on the (bright) sky a u. Controls the brightness down mercilessly. So the camera must be mounted as high as possible. It may quiet a good deal from the (dark) dashboard in the photograph. I also have the contrast to 'low' is set so that dark areas are better distinguished.
* For the supplied playback software 'registrar Viewer' (freeware) there is a newer version (Registratorviewer.com). It can be losslessly cut / merge any MP4 files. This function searches for one elsewhere (for free) with a magnifying glass!
I describe the cutting with loaded video, since I have no documentation found:
> Splitter> Integrated MOV / MP4 splitter provided a) pull-down menu "Playback" with hook
b) on the timeline below to the beginning of the section to be stored navigate> Right click "start point A" select
c) the end of the section to be stored navigate> Right mouse button select "Start point B". The selected area is highlighted in blue.
d) save the pull-down menu "File"> Video by segment
e) name and memory. place of birth are preset u. changeable.
