    G1W Firmware

    Blurriness is going to be optics - not firmware - and likely due to a lens defect. I have no blurriness on my 1017 "Blackview" G1W. Also, I didn't do a full disassembly since I didn't have a screwdriver at work, which would have likely have been more helpful, but here's a picture of what you...

    What are the best exposure settings?

    Ok, so in doing testing, having the WDR setting on leads to a lot more "bleed" from street lights than having it off - obviously it is more sensitive, but this seems to be at the expense of detail in the picture. I think I am going to leave that setting off going forward.

    What are the best exposure settings?

    So should I disable the WDR? Does it do anything with the G1W? I ran with the exposure set to -1 yesterday on the way home and in this morning, and it doesn't appear to have helped the issue with the lights. I really haven't gotten night footage that is anywhere near as clear as some of the...

    What are the best exposure settings?

    So I received the camera on Friday, and finally got a chance to do some testing yesterday and today. I've noticed a couple things - the sky usually seems to be perfectly exposed, but then the cars in front of me can be too dark. This is if I am facing into bright light. When I turn and the...

    What brand memory card

    I bought the Transcend 32GB TS32GUSDU1E from Amazon. It was $23 shipped. From reading, the Transcend cards seem to have the fewest problems overall with compatibility.

    G1W Novatek 96650 WDR F1.6 H.264 MOV 15Mbps GPS Dash Cam DVR

    Mine arrived yesterday - about a week and a half from China to Tucson, AZ. I ordered from Estore009 on ebay. So what is interesting is that my camera looks like the G1W, however the box is labeled "Blackvue DW8000", and this is on the body of the camera itself too. I'll try to get a chance...

    Smallest Ambarella Car DVR a.k.a. Mini 0801

    Re: Smallest Ambarella Car DVR I only have an American Express and a Discover - I would rather not use my Visa debit card to order with as it doesn't have the same protections. Wish they used Paypal.

    Smallest Ambarella Car DVR a.k.a. Mini 0801

    Re: Smallest Ambarella Car DVR It would be really nice to have this show up for the same price from an ebay seller. I am not sure that I want to deal with trying to order from Aliexpress.

    "New HD 720P GPS G-sensor" Car DVR - Techmoan review

    Thanks for the reply. I am pretty sure it wouldn't be FAT16, but rather a proprietary format that requires the use of their software in order to view the videos. Which is annoying. I know that for future use I would want something small to put in the back window, and in Arizona there are no...

    "New HD 720P GPS G-sensor" Car DVR - Techmoan review

    Hi All - So I am a recent introduction to dashcams - I knew of their existence, but hadn't ever thought about one until I happened to see the following review from techmoan.com: http://www.techmoan.com/blog/2012/12/8/ ... h-gps.html Which is available on ebay from several sellers with a...
