It now supports a zoom lens, allowing for a closer view to help read number plates and see more detail on a subject.
I'll post some videos once I get hold of one of these cameras.

I'll also post some footage of the IR camera working as the rear camera. (Not recommended by Viofo, but I'm sure there will be users out there who are curious.)
I will be using a Viofo-supplied 6-meter lead to try this out.
Additionally, the firmware has been updated to support the new Bluetooth button, which now has 3 buttons.
The amount of options this Viofo A229 Pro offers is fantastic.
Here is a great write-up of what it offers:
