Thread: Crash Cameras

The black view in my work van is low other wise it just picked up the dash reflection and handles the heat no prob, also the heavy duty fire truck , both other are under the mirror

I think mounting it low will likely result in more bonnet and dash being recorded than road. Having it mounted high also means it can be angled down slightly helping to reduce the effect of the sun shining into the lens.

Anybody got the DR650 or similar Blackvue????
They say you can only use their 128gb memory card.They want $180,which is way overpriced.
Will normal good quality 128gb cards work????

It is amazing what you see out there, this is todays winner:



Yes, he's reading a magazine on his steering wheel on the freeway, and yes, the coppers were notified.

Good luck in you search Andy

Cheers,

Edit, please excuse my dirty windscreen, the bugs were bad today!

The installation files etc for the camera / program set-up for your computer are on the SD card that comes with it. That's why they say that you must use their SD card. Once you have everything set up though, there's no reason you can't use another good quality card. I have done this with mine.

Also, you could probably copy the content from their card to a new one if you wanted to.

I rang the importer today,who is in Perth.They said to call a dealer,I did,The radar direct people.Most unhelpful.We dont discount the price as we import them,said they are cheaper on Ebay,told me to get one there.Asked about the card,you can only use ours

Just rang Auto 1 Cannington,they are listed as a dealer.Got them on special for $369 with the 16gb card.Asked about a 128gb card,dont stock them,told me go to Harldy Norman and copy the 16gb card contents onto the 128gb,it works

Does anyone have some sample footage from the blackvue 650? Night, day, into sun, from daylight into carpel etc?
