Hi,
I just received my G1WH last week...i had an existing Sandisk 8GB microsd card...i plugged it in, turned it on, it displays the camera current view but none of the buttons can be pressed.
I cant get into options to format or do anything at all. Is it because it's a class 4 card?
EDIT: it works now with card. apparently have to format the card before inserting into the camera.

QUOTE(denver @ May 10 2015, 01:06 PM) Which is better: G1WH / G1WC or 0803 / 0805? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8LWOq62cY6UThe G1WH/C seems to be getting lots of good reviews in youtube and here. My only hesitation with it is that it seems a bit big. Would prefer a smaller camera so that it is not obvious there is a camera when viewed from the outside. I plan to install and forget, not mount and dismount it everytime I get in the car, which would be very troublesome. Anyone has used the 0803 or the newer version 0805/806? Is it good? I honestly did not bother to read the dimensions of the product....when the box arrived i opened it and was shocked at the size of it...haha. but placed well...can barely see behind the rear view mirror. |

QUOTE(ericmaxman @ Apr 18 2015, 05:33 PM) dont skimp on the memory card yes class 4 can use, but videos are extremely choppy I had to try out my new G1WH with the only sdcard i have...it's a class 4 sandisk 8gb. Videos were good...no lag or choppy. I just ordered a 32gb class 10 sandisk online just for this camera. With 720p, i find it difficult to read car plates while cars are moving...guess will be best to record in 1080p. hence...need 32gb |

Hi,
I want to get a 2nd cam for my other car....first car has the G1WH and it works great...but sometimes it turns off itself.
I am comparing between B40/118 and Mini 0805....price is about 4USD difference and different chipset too.
One thing i like about the B40 is the 170 deg angle with Novatek chipset.
I have seen a night video for the 0805 and it wasn't that good.
Anyone here has used any of these cams? any recommendation would be good.

QUOTE(denver @ Jul 26 2015, 10:35 AM) I have the A118/B40 dash cam. While the 170 degrees angle are great, but I find the video tends to wrap/curved towards the extreme left and right of the video, like a fish-eye effect. This is very noticeable when you are facing any straight line structures like walls (parking or building wall) or fences, you can see the wall/fence lines curved a bit. This is the price you pay for having a really wide angle lens. I also have the G1W-CB. This is only 120 degrees angle, but I find the video to be slightly better, all straight lines with no curving or fisheye effect, but the disadvantage of this model is that the camera is very visible and not discrete at all. The A118/B40 is completely hidden when installed (when placed behind the rear view mirror) and nobody would know that it is there. Both have theirs pro's and con's. Thanks for the tip. The G1W video quality is very good, in terms of video, not build. I actually bought the mini 0805, want to try a different chipset than novatek. Little bit more discreet compared to the G1W. I'll get the A118 cam for the rear. |
