It's a PITA moving the mount for trial and error. I took it off once and it took me about 10 minutes. Snapped an old debit card too!
I think it's the angle of my windscreen, there's no way I can get it closer to the windscreen without using a suction mount that is obtrusive.
I guess there could be some environmental influences from the vehicle itself, for the record the video I supplied is straight from the cam, no processing, no fiddling with the settings (actually night mode is on which does lighten the daytime picture up a little) but all settings are at their defaults, mounted on the standard included windscreen mount and shot through the windscreen of my 20 year old Mazda which is not particularly pristine

on the subject of the night mode impact during the day here's a screenshot during the day

here's the same file run through a post processing software filter

if you look at the two pics back to back you can see how it is possible to get the colors a bit more dynamic, leaving the night mode on during the day does wash the picture out a little, I'm looking at adding a scheduling function to the firmware though so that the day time use is not affected by the night mode option, still something we're working on at this stage
