Hi there,
I have been looking for a dashcam with the above features but there's a lot out there and frankly a lot of lies too.
ADAS is not too important, it's just good at spotting sudden deceleration at a distance which our eyes are not good at spotting. The reversing camera is important as I am going to be using a hitch box which is below my field of view (and rear end collisions are common). I figure the audio alert if picked up by the mic in case of an accident may be to my benefit as well if I end up rear ending another vehicle due to their sudden deceleration.
I'd like GPS, wifi and Android because I'd like to run Waze on it and would like my speed displayed on the recording.
Parking monitoring in case of a hit and escape would be good as well.
I am not overly fussed about the image size as long as the quality is good enough to display number plates. I suspect a larger lens would be beneficial to allow more light in.
There's a couple of cheapies around but they are 30fps and I cannot find a lot of information on them. The one youtube reviewer I found is very happy with the one he bought.
Any suggestions?
This is the kind of aspect ratio/screen I am after. If I have to select a single mounting point it would be beside the mirror.
Image/dashcam here, if you know anything about this model I'd love to hear it!
