I came across this video of the Red Epic-M Camera. This is a $40,000 camera (with lenses and accessories) that records at 5K up to 120fps.
Here is a video of it in action. They demo it as a dash cam from 4 minutes to 8 minutes and 45 seconds.
While the picture quality is excellent. Check out the clip between 7:45 to 8:45.
They are recording 5K at 96fps and are showing it in slow motion. Note the license plates are blurry when moving. And this is during the day with decent lighting. Perhaps this is due to Youtube compression?
I realized 2 things from watching this video. The decent $200 to $300 dash cams have pretty good video quality! Also, I know we all want to capture details (license plates) when the vehicle is moving and are disappointed when our dash cam doesn't do this. Perhaps our expectations are too high!
