Comparing VIOFO A119 Mini 2 vs VIOFO A139 PRO as Rear Cameras

In an attempt to see if one is better than the other at dealing with dazzling night conditions as a rear camera.

What a terrific experiment.
If you still have them installed can you do this without the rain?
Also can you put the firmware level in the custom text?
Also was this with CPL Filters installed?
Also can you fix the backwards "mirror" setting on the A139 Pro?
Also it would be nice to hear the difference in audio.

A139 Pro firmware was V1.1_0615
A119 Mini 2 firmware was V1.0_0509
A119 had CPL. A139 Pro didn't (they don't make CPLs for the rear as far as I know)

Maybe will do another test sometime during the daytime.

Oops.
I thought you mounted the A139 Pro "main front" unit on the rear window.
Btw, I'm a retard. lol

Bad word choice I think, but I see your point. I will update the description to make it more clear.

It's my fault for not reading the title right. lol
I also got confused when I adjusted the YouTube video quality, and I saw 4K was a choice, so my brain automatically thought it was the front / main camera on the rear window.

In an attempt to see if one is better than the other at dealing with dazzling night conditions as a rear camera.

The IMX675 with HDR does appear to handle bright headlights better than the IMX291 without HDR.

However, it's difficult to compare results when one camera has a CPL and the other does not.
