Is there such thing as a side view dashcam? (For your car doors)

Probably the safest driver around because they're not going anywhere.... well not in this world anyway 😛 Maybe Halloween came early- here's one of my favorite music vids:

FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARK!

I did the same. Looked down the window then all of a sudden ahhh

Dead people don't bother me. It's some of the living ones which I find scary 🙄 The safest place in the world is a cemetery because there's nobody there to bother you 😀

Are you sure? 🙁

 

[SawMaster]

Absolutely certain of it. Used to party at the local one as a teen and even went fishing in the pond 😎 Not one single complaint from anyone there 🙄

We practiced tumbling and vaulting among the graves on Vester kirkegård in Aarhus ( cemetery ) okay we might also have smoked a spliff or two.

PS. we was not vaulting graves, but rather the hedges there, might have been stoners with surplus energy, but we still respected the graves.

I've been tinkering with centre-mounted side-facing cameras today. This was my first setup. Centre view is a Mobius 1 with 90deg lens A. The side cams are Mobius 2 with 130deg lenses, offset at 45degrees.

These are the three views

And a compilation video

I like the redundancy looking straight ahead, in case the front cam stops for any reason.
Ideally I would like to see more out the sides (see next post)

 

[TonyM]

I adjusted the setup so that the Mobius 2's were at 90degrees from the front camera, like this

These are the three views

And a compilation video

I like that the entire driver and passenger windows are in view, however the A-pillar cuts right through the frame.
I'm not really keen on having myself in the video either.

I had a sneaky feeling you'd get into this if you tried it @TonyM. 😉 And like I said somewhere else in this thread, once you start experimenting with side facing cameras, there's just no going back! 😀

 

[Dashmellow]

The side facing footage looks pretty good all in all. I think the thing to do about not wanting to have yourself in the videos is to wear a mask or fake mustache and dark glasses when driving. 😛

What, you mean I need even more cameras??!

If you don't have front, rear, right, left and a second (redundant) for the front then you don't have enough. 👍

A little bit is no good..........etc. 😀
