But GSE580 is more colourful - look at the grass, it looks greener. Its images are sharper too, able to see the left side car plates clearer.
Just my observation only.
He moved his advertising to another topic....btw,
whatever happened to the authorised gse580 distributor...?
Bro AdrianHere are the pics for u guys :
Any special reason why you mount both cams (F900 & GSE580) only on the left side of your car windscreen? Have you mounted them before on the driver side or is that not advisable due to blocking of view?
How long can the gse580 records?
See the chart from the GSE580 manual.
A 32GB card should be able to record ard 9hrs in Full HD. Good enough for overnight recording.
How to update the firmware for black view? can't seem to update .. , my set from dx does not have night mode setting , seems defective , should i rma the set?
Email DX customer service to check. My set not here yet so cant advise much. See whether the local vendors wana advice you lor.

I am 1.92m tall, head is within millimeters of the roof. So my viewing is mostly from the top of the windscreen. Therefore I cant mount any car camera on the driver side as it will definately block my view. Since my passenger(my wife) most of the time knock out at her seat, so no problem at all. And she does not look up too.
Mounting depends on individual preference lah. As long as can cover the front bonnet in ur captured video.
But I advise against mounting any car camera on the dashboard as it will be a thieves magnet. Dont have ur windscreen smashed due to that.
one thing i don't like about the f900 is the mount they provide.. as you car go over something..the videos shake
the gse580 is better... you can even make out the car plate numbers from left most lane.
now for the night videos...
Actually both also shake a little. Only way to prevent this is to have a double tape mount.
Please take ur little disagreements to PM. Also this thread is abt car cam not car alarm.
Thks,
Adrian
My 580 may arrive by tomorrow....already have a class10 32GB SD card bought previously...will see how it goes...
Thatz great!!!
I am now using a 16GB class 2 SD card. Lag time between files are 1-2seconds. Let me know how is the 32GB class 10.
I was at Sim Lim Square last weekend and saw that Fuwell is selling the Transcend 32GB class 10 for S$75, the cheapest I can find. I'll just wait for IT fair to buy when its cheaper then.
$75 is cheaper liao...I bought 2 mths ago was $80.
I have not used Transcend SD cards b4 so not sure whether to jump in. Scared same as the lousy Kingston I had b4. I am a Sandisk user. But the Sandisk Extreme 32GB is $100++
sad ... I suggest you pming the local vendor for helpHow to update the firmware for black view? can't seem to update .. , my set from dx does not have night mode setting , seems defective , should i rma the set?

The thing is: if the dealer had disappeared, DOD should know about it & appoint another one immediately. If there's a dealer here, u could get the cam faster also.

DOD is known to playout their respective distributors here in SG. Dont know why also.
Initially it was bro Parkingidiot who started doing MO and bring in DOD-tec car cam. DOD gave him sole distributor rights. Then out of no where, Solid Resource became the main distributor and bro PI became like a parallel importer.
When they launched GSE580, Solid Resource mentioned they will bring in GSE580.
Then u know lah, someone else now became the sole distributor here for the GSE580. And Solid Resource kena screwed over holding on to older DOD-tec car cam w/o having rights to distribute the new GSE580.
Karma at work??? I dont know. Maybe next new car cam from DOD-tec will have new sole distributors.

Bro, just to confirm, can the mount for F500 can be used on the GS580? The size of the cam holder is the same isit?
at least when the car goes over bumps, my videos don't get the clattering sounds.

Can. Its the same.
even left hand side of the car number plate can be seen

I am here as forum user not dealer for now. As i am busy these few days, i need time to apply for a sponsor.
To avoid warning i remove the related sales link till i pay to become a sponsor.
Congrats on using GSE580.
I believe you were saying that you cant detect the GPS on GSE580 am i right? Its not your product issue. But more towards the way how you install on your car. For my case, i install the same as yours, dont detect the GPS co-ordinates or GPS signal. It is due to the dark solar film on top of your windscreen. If you dont believe me, you may put it at area near the IU where there is no dark solar film. This concept is the same as Garmin, when i place it top right hand corner of my windscreen, i will get the GPS signal much slower than i place it near the IU. Try it out & let me know whether it works for you. Cheers.

I was told that i cant advertise until i become a sponsor + these few days i am busy & always pushing DOD when can they ship my shipment out. I just dont like they way they do things, sometimes told me can be ship out tmr & when tmr i ask them for status, they say cannot. Anyway cant blame them too much, cos the term is 10 working days after receiving payment, it still within the delivery date.
Bro GemLeo,
I followed the number that you passed to me & i did SMS you. I am not sure whether you received it, since there is no reply.
I been telling some of them that the shipment got delayed. Please see attached snap shot from my Iphone that i did sms to you.
Let me know if you need the last few digits, i can mention it in PM.
Thanks.
thanks for the review, bro adrianli..
the day video is really sharp... and not "fisheye" distortion. looks like a regular video-cam type recording. i only noticed that one or two "pause" throughout the sample!
but it is rather bulky.
strong plus is as you mentioned earlier... can be used as a camera
so many FHD options now.. it will come down to build quality, reliability and support.., and the price of course.
The fun part is that, it can be used as a camera & can zoom in too. anyway i have not take a picture using it yet.

Hi Bro,
Just to clarify that i have to stop advertise here, otherwise get a banned.
Again i am here right now as a forum user & not dealer or what so ever until i get my sponsor status.
I am busy for the past few days, please let me settle down first & apply for the sponsor before continuing on that threads that i created. at the mean time, i will remain here for anything else i can help on. Not for promoting but helping to answer related problem to GSE580. Cheers.

Not sure why but after using for two days the GSE580, the GPS still could not be activated during my driving ard. So just now I just turn the camera on and record outside my flat next to my window. It took slightly more than an hour to register the GPS coordinates on the video!!! Maybe initial activation of GPS need longer time. Lets see whether it does stamp on my video tmr when I drive to work.
Hi Bro Adrianli,
Kindly please see attached explanation.
I hope it helps.
Edited by Transcendentsolutions, 20 September 2011 - 10:32 PM.
The GSE580 is in my hands now!!!
The buttons are much better than the previous models. Its using microUSB plug so previous USB wires cannot be used on this GSE580. It accepts standard SD card size.
Will test the cam tmr when I go out. Will post comparison pics tmr.
Just for information. Was told by DOD that a full charged GSE580 can last around 90min in recording mode using internal battery without the need of external power supply.
Edited by Transcendentsolutions, 20 September 2011 - 10:46 PM.
How long can the gse580 records?
It will depend on your SDHC card size. Anyway not to worry, when you power on the GSE580, you can view on the LCD of the GSE580 stating the amount of time you can record on your SDHC card. For general thumb of rule, a 4GB SDHC it can record around 1hour 30min in 1280*1080 format & so on....

But after fiddling around with the cam, found that using the mount with the thread s more of a hassle when removing the cam.

Does this works the same? The only deff u see is the box only. Thanks.
When I got the f500, it actually came with two mounts. One was a thread, the other was to fit the cam holder.
But after fiddling around with the cam, found that using the mount with the thread s more of a hassle when removing the cam.
Hi Bro,
However for my case will be GSE580, i prefer to use the bracket rather that using the male thread (You need to turn & turn & turn to remove it, my personal feel its very troublesome).
Using the bracket will be much easier for me to remove & plug in back daily. No offence..

Hi Bro,
I cant advise much unless we ask DOD to verify. I believe they have much informations than us.
By comparing the DOD Vs DX appearance , i saw some difference, some are minor but some really obvious especially the missing button. If DX claim that its DOD then i will say its imitation. But DX did not mention its DOD so.... cannot say its fake.

No leh. My solar film no cut hole one for IU. My garmin can receive signal.
I suspect the GPS chip inside the GSE580 is a old chip that takes ages to lock on. Even I put it next to my flat window, it took one hour to lock on.
These few days the GSE580 still unable to log on the GPS while I am driving.
Can you check with DOD-tec what GPS chip they using???My DRS1100PRO logs onto GPS within 5mins driving from my MSCP. It is using the SiRFstarIII chipset which the vendor informed me when I bought it 2 yrs ago.
This GSE580 is like my Garmin forerunner 101, using old chip GPS chip set. U must leave it at stationary for a good 5mins for it to lock on to the Sats. If u move it when its turned on, it takes forever to log on.
Silly question, where can I get it?? I went around Sim Lim Square, most of the shops told me it's out of stock.
Which car cam u wana get???

Hur???
Mine is ok, never drop. My other mount which I used for F500HD and F900LHD until now never drop leh. Coming to one year liao.
Initially, my mount for the F500 kept dropping, and parts of it cracked after a while too. But parkingidiot managed to exchange it for a new mount.
After changing I had no problem with it dropping anymore (maybe because I used tape to fix it to the window).
I will ask DoD for more info of the GPS chips they used in GSE580. Will get back to you once they replied me. I tested mine it does detect the GPS signal, it didnt take a note how long before te GPS detected but definately not 1h. You are able to see the G text on top of the LCD screen when GPS signal is detected. Could you try something, before you drive, could you place your GSE580 at clear windscreen window. Does it detect the GPS signal after few minutes?
Hi Pltang,
Hmm do you remove a layer of plastic that stuck on the suction rubber?
Also may i know where do you install it at?
which plastic
below the film.. on the windscreen
Hur???
ummm.... mine juz like to drop... mayb my wiring... lemme rewire it n try...

My place is MSCP. Put anywhere also no signal.
If u look at my mounting pics, my GSE580 n DRS1100PRO are in the same top part of the windscreen. But my DRS1100PRO, a two year old plus product still get fast GPS log on unlike the GSE580. I still think is the GPS chip used.

Let me try my unit this weekend & get back to you again. Btw even my GPS nuvi3790 also received slow signal when it placed right hand top corner of the windscreen ( covered by the dark solar film). The garmin received gps signal faster when i place it beside the IU ( on top of the car meter, where there area not covered by dark solar film). I tested 1x before i permanently fixed it beside my rear mirror. For the GPS chips info, i still waiting for their reply, was told he is going to ask the RD.
which plastic
below the film.. on the windscreen
You know the bracket there is a rubber suction pad?
On that pad, new units has a plastic layer that you need to peel of before using.
My guess is you should have removed that already, just incase.. the bracket drop when under hot sun or even in MSCP also drop? For my GSE580, i always remove the GSE580 when i am leaving my car for long hours or overnight, the braket still intact since day 1. My application more jialat than yours, but mine not giving problem. Can take a picture for us to see how you mount?
$358 worth it?
Bro AdrainLi please advise !
Hey guys came across full hd blackvue in ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com....=item231446dc34
$358 worth it?
Bro AdrainLi please advise !
The specs looks good except the 2mega pixel lens. So far, I know that Full HD camera, the lens is usually 5mega pixel.
I still find the lack of LCD screen is something that is holding me back.
But overall it should be a good car cam. Pricing a little higher than others in the market for similar type.
I did send an email to Pittasoft in Korea last last weekend, Gary from Wowgadgets replied my email instead. And he said it is not launched yet and not sure when it will be in SG.

DOD-tec does has two car cam similar to Blackvue type. They are GS300(w/o GPS) and GS600. From the reviews I come across, their night video capture was poor, same as earlier DOD-tec models.
Aliexpress also has two other models similar, not sure the quality. No reviews available.
For this type of car cam, at the moment, I think Blackvue is the one to get. DOD-tec or other companies will definately release something to rival Blackvue later on. If u dont mind not having a LCD screen, go for it.
Hmm we are protected by paypal if we buy from ebay right? furthermore he's a power seller..Just a frenly reminder.

I just recieved my Blackview cam. it is my first car cam and I am quite happy with it. It is suprisingly small and light.
can anyone guide me on:
- how to turn on the display after the auto screen off? like just in case I want to check if the camera has shifted during a drive.
- turn on night mode. my settings doesn't have the option, unlike what the manual says leh... is it auto activated?
after the display is turn off after x min, u want to switch it on again, click on the circular button on the left - the huge white one with the blue led. (They call it the switching and menu button in the user guide)
i think my firm ware same as adrianli 1.1. in the menu, there should be one. it is under video output tab.
in the menu, click on the switching button to toggle the 2 tabs
Forget abt this car camera, get the Blackview car camera.
Hi Bro Adrianli,
I have been reading this thread for at least 4hrs straight!(No Joke) and i realised tat u are the official MCF car camera consultant!
I have decided to take up your recommended Blackview cam and then realise tat u have already upgraded to GSE580!
Hahahah.... reading yr post is really like watching a drama serial.
Anyway, I will be ordering the blackview cam with one of the vendor here
and would like to ask u if the package from DX comes with micro sd card?
Correct me if I'm wrong but I think i read somewhere in yr post tat the requirement for the blackview is a micro sd card right?
One more thing to add on...
If I need to buy the micro sd card on my own, wat specification would u suggest for best recording
and also how much would it cost?
Tks in advance and have a great week ahead!!!

No, the Blackview car cam I bought from DX does not come with microSD card. I have purchase it myself. I am not sure if the local vendors are bundling any microSD card with ur purchase.
Yes, the Blackview car cam uses microSD card. U can get them at Sim Lim Square or various electronics store. Best recording would be a Class 10 SDHC microSD card, get at least a 16GB one . I was using a 4GB Sandisk Class 4. A 16GB one would cost ard $40, a 4GB one like mine would be ard $15.
where can i buy the power magic online? DX? coz i have a DVR now.
Try the vendors that are carrying the Blackvue car cam. They should have it.
Hi bro, lolz, just got mine. took me a while to figure out the menu navigation.
First thing was to change to english.
but video quality was bad cant compare to those uploaded on youtube.
now after reading through numerous posts, someone says there's a sticker on the lens. will check tomorrow morning.
Which car cam u referring to???
One qns - which is the setting for auto screen-off option?
black view. took sticker out, video quality still quite poor compare to those in youtube.Which car cam u referring to???

my 580 arrived yesterday...just mounted and will do some trials....
One qns - which is the setting for auto screen-off option?
See attached, pg33 in the manual :
Look at the blur sunny on left
Looks ok to me. Is the Sunny moving when u capture the photo???
Look at the video I posted.
Remember tis is a budget car cam, cannot compare to higher end car cams. Like compact P&S camera to a prosumer camera like the NEX-5 or E-PL3.

my DSLR with expensive lens take better video than my FHD camcorder. Not complaining, but was trying to compare apple to apple.
ok, here's another when we are waiting at the traffic light. all vehicles were not moving. Can't see the license plate of the lorry in front. but taxi can
Is this the normal resolution on a rainy day?

Hmmm......look at my video :
It looks like ur lens is set to marco instead of landscape. Check again. Cos the water droplets looks sharp but objects further away is blur.

Don't worry bro i also same as you, read everything in this thread.
I bought the Lukas one and am still following the guru's take on the newer DOD one.
that's the video that i look at b4 buying.Hmmm......look at my video :

will check the lens again

I cannot check my Blackview now to see how to change between macro n landscape.
My new Blackview is with Singpost. The postman came yesterday but no one was home. I will collect it at the post office tmr.
1) memory space. low memory space eg 4gb-32gb : cant record for long. have to delete or copy out the data. hazzle work to be done. even if can record for long, the resolution would be kinda low, hence can only see very near objects. high resolution = cant record long.
2) battery. built in to car battery, external lead battery or expendable batteies. built in car battery means when you're not driving = cannot record. external lead battery also mafan, need to charge when driving, which you can never get a full charge, cuz full charge takes ard 2hr-4hr depending on the capacity of the lead battery, unless u drive that long everyday. expendable batteries even worst, need to keep changing the batteries. global warming hor... save the earth.. haha
i intended to get one cuz people scratch my car, but end up got a viper security system. much better. depend on ya. just my 2 cents.

No worries, I am just checking if that's the quality to be expected. I check the manual, there's nothing to change focusing.I cannot check my Blackview now to see how to change between macro n landscape.

maybe its the rain screwing with the focusing.
Thanks again
Have been using the Dod F880LHD for a couple of days now.
Playing back video on my 42" Hd Tv, daytime video is superb. I think Dod makes one if not the best dvr for daytime recording so far.
But night time recording is not so good using the default settings.
After days of experimenting with the multiple settings, from what i gathered so far, for night recording, with EV setting set to -1 or -1.3, video is much less grainy. This setting can also be used for daytime recording without compromising much the brightness and clearity.
To all those, esp to bro Adrian, don't mind sharing your video settings to get the best for night time recording.
For me, at least, am very happy with the camera so far.
my 2 centsthings to take note of :
1) memory space. low memory space eg 4gb-32gb : cant record for long. have to delete or copy out the data. hazzle work to be done. even if can record for long, the resolution would be kinda low, hence can only see very near objects. high resolution = cant record long.
that's not true for my fhd camcorder & DLSR video usage
resolution and focus depends on sensors & size, lens and image processor
case in point, P&S camera sensor vs FF DLSR sensors.
kit lens vs expensive lens -> image quality
FF DLSR will have better processor thus faster focusing than say entry level DSLR
I've been searching the net for reviews on this but can't find much. Thanks.
Just something to share.

Osiris and Adrianli, thanks for replying.
The videos taken by my blackview can't compare to the one taken by Adrianli, abit blur blur leh. How to check if the lens is set to landscape or marco?
my video settings is the same as Adrianli's, dun have the night mode option as stated in the manual, I try to post a pic of it later.
there's a mini CD included in the box, does it contain firmware upgrade? I haven't checked it out yet cuz cannot fit into my mac la. haha
somehow the sensor was not able to render yellow plate correctly. all mine images posted so far are at 100%
compare these with my 3 yo cheap SD car cam also at 100% but no cropping. Pix 1 & 2 old sd car cam, 3 & 4 blackview

Bro, so you are using a Class 4 instead of Class 10 for your recording that you posted? No jerky recording?
