HD Digital Video Camera Recorder Portable Car Camcorder 1280x960 products, buy HD Digital Video Camera Recorder Portable Car Camcorder 1280x960 products from alibaba.com

Found a store locally that carries this camcorder for $79.99...
Apparently its 1280x960 HD... Probably simplier than what you guys have but something to start out?

Plugs into 12volt ... Is that how most of yours are like? Thanks!

I've gone thru two cheap deal extreme cams and finally cave and got the dr-400. Honestly speaking just paying the little bit more from the start should of been the thought from the start. I wasted 150 bucks or so on the cheap cam that doesn't really give good output and night shots were terrible

Videos on youtube: DVR-P5000 - YouTube

It's not true HD, it's upscaled. The video's actually probably something like 640*480, and they upscale it to 1280*960 (You're just looking at low res video on a bigger screen).

So, thinking of getting one of these dash cams. Is the one you have easy to unmount? Also, can I purchase an extra mount so I can install it on another vehicle?

I gather this is the same one you have and the the same that's available at the store on Kingsway?

1080p HD DASH CAMERA

I like the Black Vue that people are talking about, but if this is good enough, I can use the money I save to buy another one for the rear. Also if it gets stolen, it won't hurt as much as getting an expensive one stolen.

I hope the cam takes decent footage at night, 'cause you never know when you're in a situation like I was on New Year's Eve. My memory is good, but there's nothing like playing back a footage like that on a screen. Shiny, tight, blue dresses, FTW!

It was for me. The DR350 misses out on full HD resolution and GPS; it records at VGA resolution (640*480 vs 1920*1080 for the 400)

Almost sounds like the same, but I was told mine was 180 degree lens....your link says 140? I dunno...

From what I've gathered, its straight suction cup, plugs into 12v socket, buy your own sd card and ready to go. I still like to go check it out and ask more questions from sales guy before purchase.
