Don't Believe the Bad Reviews
This camera works great! I drive a lot, but decided to wait a few weeks just to see if there were any truth to the bad reviews. Now that a few weeks have gone by with (basically) no issues, I'm here to let everyone know the bad reviewers are a bunch of techno-illiterate babies. One of the main complaints I see is that the instruction guide that comes with the camera tells the user nothing. That is kind of true, yes. The guidebook essentially just tells you the basic function of each button and not much else. I thought that was kind of frustrating, but I began to play around with the camera, and soon found out it was the easiest thing in the world to navigate if you can focus for literally 2 minutes. I was able to configure the camera to my desired specifications almost immediately. I see a few people complaining about how the screen turns black after a few minutes of non-use. This is EASILY turned off in the settings. I swear, people don't even try. A lot of people also complain that the camera "dangles like a Christmas ornament". First of all, funny comparison but also a huge exaggeration. Granted, the latch that fixes the stand to the camera is not very dependable and is prone to falling off if you drive on a bumpy road. This can be annoying and dangerous (it swung and hit my copilot in the face, which was actually kinda funny, so i'm not too mad). However, this is another issue that can be easily fixed. I tied some black tape around the camera and the stand, and have not had a single issue since. It's that easy, everyone. TAPE. The camera quality is FANTASTIC, especially when uploaded to your computer, you can see everything: license plates, car types, even birds in the sky. I see some people complaining that you can't pick up license plates with this camera. Utterly and completely untrue. Maybe you can't see them if you're watching the playback from the tiny screen on the camera, but that issue is obliterated if you just simply upload the video to your computer. Again, people don't even try. Some of you people act like a product is entirely defective if there's one or two issues, even if they're easily fixable. This camera works great and does exactly what I want it to. Something like this is absolutely phenomenal for the price, and I would argue that everyone should get one of these.
