I ordered what was suppose to be F500LHD from Amazon. I turns out to be an F500 with firmware "1.00". The 1080p video is excellent and I would probably keep it even though several options are different from what was given on Amazon. The biggest problem is when I flip the video to use the camera upside down at the top of the windshield, the video doesn't flip properly. With it flipped the graphics are flipped correctly, but the video is upside down no matter what position I have the camera in. Is this normal for the F500L? If so whats the point of being able to flip it? I am going to send it back but wondering if I order a real F500LHD will it be the same? I haven't seen any mention of this on the forums.
 
The real F500LHD has a menu option to flip the video. When selected, the video and date/time stamp is flipped. No problems whatsoever. Seems like this fake model has some poor firmware.
