A119S Firmware Comparison FW2.0 with sharpening, hot pixel fix vs FW1.01 no sharpening, no hot pixel fix. The A119S with FW2.0 provides great image quality for accident recording which is the main purpose of the Dashcam.
Video Fanatics have a different view:
FW2.0 is slightly over color saturated and slightly over-sharpened and slightly too bright.
FW2.0 seems to have WDR or similar feature forced on for low light conditions, it brightens image greatly in extreme low light areas if you need that grainy effect, FW1.7 does not.
Request from VIOFO Custom Firmware = (FW2.0 including hot pixel fix & parking mode) + (FW1.01 image quality values & 50% less FW2.0 sharpening)
Eventually VIOFO will create the "just right" Image Quality firmware.
