The more the better

A digital recorder for a car is a complex device with complex interconnected high-tech nodes, the discrepancy of their characteristics entails a deterioration in the quality of recording and operation of the device. So, very often a low-grade recorder with Full HD has optics that are simply not designed and not capable of shooting at the stated 1080p. And the device is being finalized so as to bring low-resolution video (HD or even WVGA) to a resolution of 1920x1080 pixels. As a result, such a Full HD video recorder gives an image that is simply a blurry “porridge”, and its quality does not change with attempts to increase the resolution or view the details. Such discrepancies lead to poor picture quality without detail with low sensitivity. So, when choosing, it is better to apply for competent professional advice in order to understand such nuances and avoid annoying disappointments when buying a model with high modern characteristics.

Expensive models-it's just "freaks", you can easily choose cheaper

In the case of precisely these car devices, the low price of a DVR usually indicates a certain level of its components, leading to certain problems, respectively. For example, an inexpensive processor of insufficient power will not give the recorder the necessary speed to process the video stream, the videos will be saved with pauses between them during cyclic shooting. Poor quality motherboards affect the stability of the work-a date may be lost, gaps may appear during video recording, freezes, etc. Cheap Chinese models, little-known names “without a name”, popular models at reduced prices should always be alerted-there is always a risk of forgery, low-grade mass products that do not meet the specifications and no guarantees.

No G-Sensor Nowhere

G sensor in the DVR or accelerometer-a sensor that is triggered by events such as sharp turns, braking, acceleration. Then the current file is protected from deletion and is excluded from the loop recording. Just chasing the fashionable stuffing, buyers forget to think about how likely it is that after an accident the driver will record so many videos, forgetting to copy this important file in order to delete it. But it really comes in handy if the video is needed in time, for example, as evidence already in court.

LED or IR LED for night vision

LED or IR lights in the DVR are often accompanied by descriptions of this device, as a means for night shooting. Here it is necessary to remember the following. Infrared and LED diodes are useful for shooting at night in the parking lot or for recording in the cabin, and also useful to capture the image of someone who approached the car (traffic inspector, thief), or for shooting outside the car. And in motion, reflected from the windshield and illuminating the sensor, IR illumination will only worsen the image. The number of LEDs in this case does not matter (2, 4 or 24), they work only from a distance and cannot complement, let alone replace the headlights. For night shooting, a special night recording mode or more expensive devices with special optics will be effective.
