## Description

Flagship 4K UHD dash cam now with an improved Sony STARVIS 2 sensor. Redefine expectations for dashcam video quality and storage efficiency, with industry-leading features and experience for complete confidence. With its 8.4MP Sony STARVIS 2 CMOS sensor, DR970X-2CH PLUS captures 4K 2160P UHD video - four times as many pixels as Full HD; combined with genuine 4K 2-channel technology, BlackVue provides a whole new level to dashcams. New 4K Sony STARVIS 2 Sensor: The 4K Plus models all have an IMX678 sensor in the front camera, providing improved low light sensitivity and better dynamic range. NEW QUICK (f/1.7 Aperture: the large aperture lens allows 4K Plus main cameras to collect more light compared to the f/2.8 lens of its predecessors, resulting in faster shutter speed, allowing the action to freeze and minimize blur. Improved setting of image signal processor (ISP) the dynamic range and overall fidelity have been improved across the entire field by expertoptiming a new chipset. In simple terms: the image looks better, especially at night and in high-contrast scenes where most cameras struggle to preserve details in highlights and dark areas. Two times longer event buffer: The 4K Plus models feature a 10-second buffer up from 5 seconds for previous models. This means that videos recorded during driving or parking include ten seconds of action that occurs before the triggering event. These include detection motion in motion & Impact Parking mode, manual events that are triggered via the touch sensor on the side of the camera, or impact sensed by the accelerometer during driving or parking. HEVC/H.265 codec: The 4K Plus models have the compression algorithm of high efficiency and video encoding as standard, at the same time provide users with the opportunity to select the wider AVC/H.264 codec. HEVC retains details better and also allows recording at a higher bit rate of 60 megabits per second (lower settings are also available).

Camera does not work consistently. For the price, this should not be such a pain. Worked for about 6 months, changed as card, powers on intermittently until it finally stops working altogether. We not buy another product.
