Or are they just a sign of a addiction to dash cameras ?
Well.
While i often argue a single good camera should suffice in covering you against the most claims against you, and also the chance captures of other people messing up also tend to happen in front of you.
And as i also have said often, if you like to expose the bad drivers out there, then you cant really have too many cameras.
Anyway for you to be able to decide i have just made this little demo of what you can expect of a side camera.
So what you will see here are footage off the Mobius B lens i have in the Left side of my car, it is just frame grabs displayed as freeze frames so i am only using about half of the footage where the car are in frame as we pass each other.
Weather ( lighting ) was modest and the speed i dident get up to the 80 km/h highway speed before we started to pass each other, but we are not crawling here.
Worked fine today, but i think it is safe to say that a side camera need more light as it only have a fraction of a second to get some captures in, at least when passing right past each other like in this footage.
