So I turned the camera on when I left for work at 6:45 a.m. It only takes me 15 minutes to get to work. I parked the car and walked away from it at 7:00 a.m., leaving the camera in parking mode. I returned to the car at 5:15 p.m. I took a look at what had been recorded on my cell phone. The recording started around 1:00 p.m. and went up to the time I was checking it, 5:15 p.m., which means that the videos that were recorded from 6:45 a.m. up to 1:00 p.m., had all been recorded over. Oh yes, I had started with a newly-formatted SD card at 6:45 a.m.
I am using the 16GB SD card that comes with the camera. It looks like an SD card that size only has a maximum recording capacity of a little over 6 hours and then it begins recording over itself.
I typically start my dashcam when I leave for work a little before 7:00 a.m. and run it for 11 hours or so, either in normal mode or parking mode (mostly parking mode while I am parking it at work). I would like it to have a max recording capacity of at least 12 hours. What size SD card should I get to accomplish that?
P.S. - for the RTFM people here, I did go through the manual and was unable to find anything on this particular subject.
Edit Note: While at work, I park the car on a busy street. Cars are going by constantly.
