Getting Clearer "Idiots On The Road" Videos
I had a Gopro Hero 3 Black for a while now and it's mainly use for the bike, a bit under use so decided to buy this frame and mount it in the car to give better video since I already have it then why not.
Gopro do not turn on automatically with power cable like all evidence cam does, it is manually switched ON for it to work. One feature that the gopro has is the cycle record, what it does is cycle record over and over again within the time that we specify. Example if I choose 5 minutes cycle it will write individual 1 minute video and will over write the first of the five video as the time goes and so on.
If there any incident happen, just hit the shutter button and the 5 clips will be saved, hit the shutter button again it will then do another batch of 5 clips cycle on an on. This cycle record is possible to have at various time or just to max of the card.
Mounted it on the windscreen with one of the sticky adapter and set it to 1080p Medium field of view, the wide field of view is just too much for the car. I still have the G1W mounted on the side and it just share the same mini usb cable when needed.
This is how it looks on the outside, very noticeable. Well Gopro never designed it to be discrete just has to remove it when it is not needed, it is an expensive piece of hardware so it is best not to leave it in the car.
I will use the G1W most of the time and the Gopro for certain occasion that when I need to get a clearer video of the drive.
Use the dedicated GoPro Apps for android to control, view and change setting of the camera.
Will post few footage here in the near future.
