Blackbox DVR/Dashcam

[yapoy86]

both are good cameras. sj5000 have real 16MP sensor while sj4000 have 2MP sensor na interpolated. try watching techmoan review for both. one advantage for sj4000 is longer battery life at 90 mins while the sj5000 at 60 mins or less

How about the SJ4000+?

For SJ4000 users, what settings do you use for night driving? After playing around and testing, I've settled on 720p with "Cloudy" for WB. I've increased exposure pero video is overexposed on well-lit streets so set it back to default.

720p ok na sa akin. parang overkill na 1080p. you don't need all the details, just enough na makita mo kung sino may kasalanan in case of an accident. look at cctvs, anlalabo ng mga yan pero enough to pinpoint kung sino ang at fault. pero when i tested, 720p 3min videos are around 300mb while 1080p 3min videos are around 350mb so konti lang naman ang difference sa file size. WB is auto tapos +1/3 exposure to compensate for my windshield's medium tint. i don't enable audio recording anymore.

kung madilim yung sa gabi na video, that's normal. i just download the video on my computer or phone and adjust using the video player. i use vlc. it pulls out great details even on dark videos.

Video on hiding dashcam wires

Thanks dito. Sinipag tuloy ako ayusin yung wire. 3 meters cable ginamit ko may konting sobra lang. Sa passenger side ko pinadaan.



Yung setting ko ng sjcam 720p +1/3 stop exposure at auto na lahat. Almost 278mb yung size every 5 minutes with audio so nasa 9 hours kaya nyang irecord gamit 32gb card. Iniiwan ko minsan sa parking naka battery mode lang at umaabot ng almost 2 hours yung narerecord full bat to empty bat yun.

Yung saken maiksi yung stalk nung rear view mirror. No choice but to use suction.

Sa mga gagamit ng mga clips para sa wiring nila.

Ito yung binili ko. Hindi ko palang magamit since umuulan at madilim sa garahe. Yung setup ko right now is a bit messy dahil walang clips at tape pero it does the job of routing the cables.

If may aksidente more detail = more evidence. Pero 720p 30fps is better than no video at all.

sa DP220 twice as large yung 1080p vs 720p.

Parking Mode's motion detect recording will not be triggered as long as there is continuous charge from powerbank. It will still be regular recording.

And during my "beta test", my 10050mah ASUS powerbank still have lot of juice to power dp220 after 12 hours. So I suggest you use 64GB SDCard para di ma overwrite.

By the way, not all powerbank support pass through charging. ASUS and XIAOMI are the cheaper brand which supports it, hirap lang maghanap ng genuine. In theory, kaya yata ni Asus na i power ang dp220 for a day ... Baka lang mag overwrite na ng old videos

never use 64GB sdcard kasi di supported ng DP220 ang NTFS. i have DP200 and already tried 64GB formatted as exFAT using 3rd party software. gagana sya pero madalas memory card error. nagswitch na lang ako sa 32GB wala ng problem.

Im using a 64gb adata sd card on my dp220 which I previously used on my phone at wala naman ako naexperience na error. Maybe bad card na yun nagamit mo bro

^^ Thanks for all the feedback regarding nighttime settings.

No windshield tint so default exposure settings seem to give me the best results. Upping the exposure to even +1/3 gives me problems with glare at night especially with light sources, ie oncoming vehicles headlamps and streetlights. The fact that I also have Phillips Xtremevision bulbs adds to this issue when it reflects on the plate number from the vehicles I'm following. The glare is so bad sometimes that it makes the plate numbers of vehicles in front of me unreadable.

I've also settled on 720p because I can set capture rate at 60fps. Will try disabling audio, as it is parang almost 1gb per 10 min yung file size.

I also ordered 5m long usb cables, will try some cable management once it arrives.
