are meme cameras really the best option for recording driving? Am interested in some sort of dash cam but memepros are ridiculously overpriced.

they are ok but despite being action/sports oriented they have a nasty habit of corrupting files when bumped/banged/dropped. Memory cards dont sit securely in them.

I had this issue the other day when I tried running a slightly bumpier canyon. I got about 15 minutes in and it stopped recording, froze up, etc. I was sad.

I use a Sony Action Cam ASV-100. I like it so far. The shape of the camera is better, has better microphones (but over 30mph wind noise takes over with the water case on) picture quality in my opinion is better than the GoPro 3. But both now feature 1080p at 60fps and 4k with newer cameras. I waited until Black Friday last yeat to get mine closer to $200 instead of $300 retail.

What mount setup do you guys use and where to you put it? I've been using my GoPro a lot lately but haven't tried it in car, seems tough to get a good shot in the car because of the FOV and short focus. No matter what sport you are doing light changes pretty much kill all GoPro shots.

Inside the car I use a sticky mount I attached to my MX-5's soft top frame where it meets the windshield frame. Works pretty well. Isn't doing me a lot of good right now since the hardtop is on.

I use this suction mount for the body panels. Use the sham wow to clean the area before mounting. For my pov I used the included helmet mount which is a nylon strap with a clip on mount, removed the strap and clipped it on my hat.

I haven't used my old gopro in a while, except in my enduro car which I haven't uploaded yet because the vid was shit.

I did just buy a mobius action cam to use as a dash cam. It seems decent so far, need to play with it more.

I impulse bought a hero 4 black and I'm not sure what to do with it.
Right now it's taking a night lapse photo of the stars in my back yard.
The battery life is kinda shit, might have to pick up a battery bacpac because one hour is basically useless, most dirt bike rides I do are like 3 or 4 hours long.
Other than that it's really nice tho.

Turn down the video settings to increase battery life, also turn off features like GPS, WiFi if it has that stuff.

I'm pretty amazed with the phone app too, can control everything and get a live preview.

I don't know. I have the Sony version above and it does. That phone app uses a form of WiFi called "NFC" and that does eat battery like crazy.

i just used tape + any camera.

i had some videos of me driving around, but they're in night and even with high beams on it's impossible to see anything besides some of stuff on side of road.
the lights also are brighter on the left side because thats side of road, so i think that's why

Oh well I'm retarded. Turning wifi off on the Sony turns off the NFC feature.

I guess parts are cheap for panthers though, so no real damage.

>>13758910

Also just thought of a tip. If you're trying to capture footage from inside a car but you want the focus to be what's out the windshield, use the spot metering thing. That forces the exposure to be set to whatever spot the center of the camera is on. So if it's bright outside but darker in the car, you'll get video that lets you see outside very well while keeping the inside details of the car dark.

I want to get a GoPro camera to work with the Track Addict app. So that means it has to be a Hero 3, 3+, 4, or 4+. I plan on getting the 3, is there any reason why I should skip it and get the 4?

I could afford to go buy the "best" one brand new but I don't want to wast my money. After googling some specs it looks like im going to want a Hero 3 black. Time to start watching ebay for some deals.

Sucking seafoam into the engine is supposed to clean carbon deposits. Police cars idle a lot so it's a good candidate for carbon. Did that when I first got it to clean it up.
