    GitUp F1: any good for dash cam use?

    Yes they perform fairly well low light. And some 70€ is a good price. For 4K there is a need for fast cards and I bought some 128GB U3 cards for under 15€. Still I mostly use 1080 50fps as anything over it takes so much space. Also I would really like to get a waterproof case for F1. Its no fun...

    GitUp F1: any good for dash cam use?

    Its Gitups Black Friday pricing. But you got a good deal. And yes it is good that they can be used standalone. If I would have only one then it would be battery version. I have used battery versions front and back as I have two of them, but I was still wondering if the capacitor version with...

    GitUp F1: any good for dash cam use?

    Ok, so that seller adds shipping fees. That explains that price a bit. Gitups own pages sell it for 76,44€ with no shipping costs. I have have been thinking about getting the capacitor version for my fatbike. I have used the battery version but to prevent sudden battery death, I use powerbank...

    GitUp F1: any good for dash cam use?

    I use F1 mostly when fatbiking or hiking/walking. I have a separate cam that I use when driving a car. I have never even thought about not saving all my recorded video. I mean that is the main reason to save them to be able to watch and see everything later or put them on Youtube. I have one...

    GitUp F1: any good for dash cam use?

    F1 with Starvis IMX291 and possibly H.265 is something I really would like and have been waiting for. Now I have to use VidCoder to compress videos to HEVC to save space.

    F1 Firmware

    Yep..sun goes up 8.55 and goes down 15.23 for 6.28h daylight so good low light ability from cameras are needed here.

    F1 Firmware

    Yep..I also ordered Astrolux MF02 from BLF groupbuy for €67. That should do near a mile if it really does around 630000cd. It is much smaller. I usually carry flooder like Meteor daily or should I say nightly. But BLF GT deal was just too good to pass for $111.

    F1 Firmware

    OK,that function! Haven`t really used it with any cams..I used to do little bit like that by recording continuously but it accumulates huge amounts of video to go through when done even for something like 3-4 hours. It is hard to find the best parts from all that and then to cut/edit them. The...

    F1 Firmware

    Hmm..not sure how that works.What is the lock button in this case and how it works? How would this enable to record only those wanted bits and save the card space? My cars dashcam records all the time when the power is on and in looping mode fills the card recording over oldest videos.

    F1 Firmware

    I use those 18650 battery power bank tubes that are barely bigger than flat top 18650 3000mAh battery itself. They cost around $2 on Banggod and Gearbest. I just tape that tube on a top of F1 for neat package when needed. It is still easy to carry on your hand or mount.. I have 64Gb SD card but...

    F1 Firmware

    Yes but if you go to some event which will last several hours and cannot know when the best action happens it will be very difficult to record all those hours. And getting enough card space for several hours of good quality recording is not easy nor cheap.And then finding and editing all those...

    F1 Firmware

    I meant that F1 would be constantly recording like 5 second loop so it captures those seconds what happens before one pushes quick start record button. This way you will get to record those fast to happen action seconds before you will have time to start the normal recording by pushing the quick...

    F1 Firmware

    One option is that if quick recording could record some 3-5 second loop when on so when pressing quick record button one won`t miss fast action footage and those seconds would show added to your normal recorded video. Many times things happen so fast and you miss many crucial seconds because you...

    F1 Firmware

    Can the quick start recording be made quicker to start recording from off? It now takes several seconds until it starts recording after using quick start and in actioncam use it feels fairly slow resulting missed action.

    F1 Firmware

    I accidentally did that once and got bricked Eken H9. After that I have been trying to be sure to use an empty extra card. Don´t know if GitUp is different in that sense but many others recommend to use empty cards to update firmware.

    F1 Firmware

    Looks like firmware update went well when I tried it! It would be nice to see clock and date on F1 screen and of course the manual video ISO settings added next updates. Haven´t used zoom function yet but cannot it be used while recording video to zoom?

    F1 Firmware

    Ok,Thanks! I have an empty 16Gb card which I will format so it will be completely empty and download firmware to it inserting it to F1. Hopefully GitUp will add manual video ISO settings soon.

    F1 Firmware

    I see nowhere instructions how to update firmware?This is my first GitUp camera so I want be sure that it will be done correctly. Is video ISO settings finally added? Hopefully video ISO can be up to 6400 or so for better low light video.

    GitUp F1 and G3 Duo

    F1 has way better form factor for an action cam use and possibly as a dashcam. F1 has way better sensor for a challenging lighting conditions and better specs so if G3 has better video quality then it must be some firmware issue and should be fixed soon by updates. Not to say that G3 isnt good...
