24H Mirror Recorder – Full HD 1080P Mirror Car Dash Cam + Dual Lens Video Recorder / Driving Black Box Car DVR Dash Camera Cycle

purchased this to attach to a full face snorkel mask for when I go on holiday in the sea. It’s great that it’s waterproof and comes in its own tightly secured plastic casing to prevent the water getting in.
It’s nice and easy to use without lots of confusing buttons or menus to scroll through. It even came with some charge already in it so I could try it straight away!
I didn’t take into account that it doesn’t come with a memory card but luckily they’re relatively cheap and easy to get hold of just make sure you get one with lots of memory as you’ll likely record more videos than take pictures.
The picture quality looks decent although I haven’t yet uploaded them onto a computer with a bigger screen. I’m not expecting the quality to be absolutely amazing, I’ll be happy to just be able to look back at what I saw on my holiday in the sea.
It also comes with all sorts of different attachments, mainly for if you cycle so it can go on a helmet or the handle bars but it does have extra mounts and sticky pads so it can go most anywhere!
It’s great that there are now these cheaper versions of the go pro because it means we can more affordably use them in these kinds of situations without worrying about spending a fortune and it potentially getting lost/breaking.
Very happy with my purchase and would recommend

This item is superb for the price; it does a lot. It has two resolutions: 1080p and 720p; decent sound quality and wide angle lens to pick up great shots. The only down side (and I don’t know how others are claiming it lasts all day) is the battery it lasts a good 45 minutes on 1080p and nearly 2 hours on 720p.
It also is overly bright, which means in sunny conditions you get washout shots and the manual isn’t too detailed just basic information on use but it isn’t hard to figure out.
It comes with a whole host of brackets for bicycle or helmet. I mainly use it for my bicycle. It also comes in a waterproof case – which works brilliantly for rainy days. The brackets are weak though they constantly become loose when cycling it tilts up if you ride hard or bump on roads etc;
It has something that surprised me a motion camera capability.
Summary: very happy for the purpose I require it for to film short commutes.

Definitely NOT 1080p resolution in video mode. It seems, in my opinion, to be a badly executed extrapolated 720p. On the 12M setting for photos, when viewing the resultant images on my PC, the pictures appear grainy and pixelated, even with a 20 per cent zoom. The Image Stabilisation in video mode while mounted on the handlebar of my bicycle is shaky and the images are not particularly clear. On a flat and well surfaced road, the image stabilisation was so bad, you couldn’t even get a clear picture of the registration plate of the car that was 10 feet in front of me. Remember that you have to remove the memory card from the unit and insert it into a card reader to play back video or view photos on your desktop computer, you can’t view them directly from the camera to PC. The 2 inch screen of the camera makes it difficult for me to play back on the camera, and I need to view the captures on a desktop PC. The instructions clearly state that you have to remove the memory card to do this, which is a PITA. On a final note, after three bike rides and removing the card to view the resultant playback, the card will no longer eject from the relevant slot in the camera, it’s jammed solid in there. I tried using a popsicle stick to push the card and get it to eject, but now the darned thing just goes further into the slot and no longer registers as being present by the camera. I had this camera for 3 days and was not happy with it’s performance at all. As the memory card will no longer eject or even register as being present in the camera, I re boxed everything and now it’s a permanent fixture in the local land fill site.
