The F880HD manual is there. It's just below the F900HD manual. I've downloaded it to read.
I only see a MI800 leh, different camera
Two extracts from the F880HD manual
"AF: When switch to AF mode, it will depend on the subject and focus automatically to the clearest image. AF is fit for taking a close-up.
MF: When switching to MF mode, the focus is fixed. MF is fit for taking a long shot."
Conclusion: It seems as a car recorder, AF is not useful. AF is only useful to take photographs.
"When IR mode is on, the lens should be switched to night mode, meanwhile, the subjects within the range of IR-illumination will be clear black and white image."
Conclusion: Night vision is Black and White Image! Is this useful as a car-recorder? And F880HD does not come with a night flash. The IR replaced the night flash. I find it not useful as if I want to use it as a portable video/photo camera, it cannot capture colour shots in the night as it does not come with flash.
thanks for the in depth analysis.
how about the f900LHd vs F880 hd-1? still tinkering with these 2 models.
thanks in advance

The night mode will only record in black and white and there is no normal flash.
Maybe I should take the F900LHD instead...

The cam's IR illum not so powerful as to be able to shine out your windscreen.

i would try to imagine IR mode is like our SAF NVG where it boost the light intake of the apecture so it would give clearer and sharper picture...
nothing wrong if it's in B&W since it's e car plate and incident we wanna capture... if really wanna double up e cam as portable video/photo might as well do it e other way round: use a camera or video cam as ur in-car recorder.
rmb when there is insufficient light source the apecture react slowly and e image capture is slow... might juz miss a crucial frame where incident happen....
i'll stick with F880HD for its IR capability.... AF is juz something extra, wont mind paying extra $10 for it... if really no use juz turn it off... rather den when need i dun hv....
Is DOD camera made in China? Can somebody who bought it clarfiy? Many thanks.
Its made in Republic Of China. Not People's Republic of China.
The F900LHD with the car bracket & car charger cost slightly lesser than the F880HD-1 package.
currently we have 4 set of F900LHD on order. If we can get another 6 sets, we will be able to get better pricing.
Edited by Seansin, 08 October 2010 - 07:54 AM.
saw the night recording of the F88HD in this ad here. it's not meant to be for in-car recording i think. i mean, who would drive in complete darkness?
The video quality looks ok.
The only concern is that the IR flash might not be powerful enough to shine out the windscreen and to illuminate the car in front, considering the distance between the camera and the front car(s).
it would be fun to use it around the house (pitch dark) or outdoor night walks ...
This group buy is closing this sunday... so better hurry and place your orders...

I think most people are buying the F880HD this time. I see 5 confirmed orders for F880HD already, none for F550HD
C'mon Sean, if you come over to F880HD-1, and with my 2 orders, might reach 10 orders for F880HD. Although my first choice would be F550HD.

Oso ordered a f880hd-1 wif 120 deg lens... dat makes the order at 8. 1 more day to reach the target 10!
I confirmed my order last night and paid today.
But hor only when payment made then considered firm order and price reduction!
So the current status is 9 orders but think only 3 (including me) paid
I'm caught between getting the GS-600 and the F880HD1...
So wanna check if the GS-600 has timestamp? GPS has time and date?
Never even installed in car. Comes with car bracket, car charger & long USB cable. Letting go for $150. Interested pls PM me tks!
would be going for the F900 LHD.
thanks for the advices from BROS.
how to order? how much? include the 120 degrees lens? installation how much?
Send an email to parkingidiotGMAIL.com for the product catalog.
The F900LHD has built-n 120 degree lens. Total = $219 with bracket, long usb cable and car charger.
The F880HD-1 costs $232 with the 120 degree lens adaptor.
You have to install it yourself. But it is not difficult.

Any update on the latest MO?
Hi Everyone
This is a minor update from me on the status of the car cam delivery.
I have already transferred the funds over to the supplier last week. I have not yet got a firm estimate on the delivery date - just a rough estimate of about 2 weeks. I have just emailed the supplier again this morning to follow up to get a firm date - I shall let you know when I get news.
By the way, in reply to a query from some of you, there is a 1 year warranty on the products - so if any issue after you have taken possession later - you can return to the supplier for repair/exchange within a year. I can assist you in sending back for this - but you need to bear shipping costs yourself. After repair the supplier will ship back at their own cost. Hope this answers the query.
That's all for now. Oh, by the way - there have been more calls for additional orders, so I shall begin a new MO soon - if you wish to be included in the email loop again, pls let me know - otherwise, I won't spam you with the new MO emails. My emails to you will now only deal with your own MO delivery details.
Cheers!
Been using it for one day now and the images captured were really good. got my f900LHD too. Pronto service from parkingidiot~~~!
any bros fixed the cam without attaching it to the front glass?
will be "eyeing" th gs600 next.
thanks

I have the latest pricelist up at my sponsor thread, and started a new MO for Nov 2010, for those who are keen to join in - please send me an email: parkingidiot gmail . com
There is this "Motion Detection" function that is stated in the cam, is this the same as those surveillance cameras that will auto record when someone passes by your car?
yes, that's shld be the case.
For some reason all the clips come out as very jerky when I view them.
If you mean the clips seem jerky on the PC when you view them - that means the computer is either too slow or not optimised to display HD movies in .mov, or if you are using windows movie maker, it displays lower quality during preview mode - but it records in high quality - so that the final product would be clear and smooth. I have been doing this for a long time - definately, it's the PC issues - not the camera.
Hi, do you have video footage of GS300/600?
For some reason all the clips come out as very jerky when I view them.
The videos are fine when I viewed them.
Could be my PC.
I use the Starhub 1Mb free service.
Mind you it's OK on all the other vids I view elsewhere.
Maybe u can download the youtube video to your PC and view it from the PC.

just bought this for $220/= very clear HD video...
so farnie... i was wondering why you were drivin' so slow, but then your GPS asked you to "observe the speed limit and drive carefully"
I'm using a DR9 from Vigi products. Installed in Autobacs. Doing well with it. Autobacs can also add a switch to make it a 24hr camera even if your engine is off. But you probably need a much larger SD card to support the lengthy video, maybe 8 or 16GB. http://www.vigidrive...9/products.html

Bro,
How much u spent on installing at Autobacs? Thx.

Bro,
How much u spent on installing at Autobacs? Thx.
I think its not expensive, a couple of tens. Probably less than $50. Call them to check. List price for the cam I'm using is $399. I did remember its $30 for extra wiring and switch to convert it into 24hr cam. SD card optional. Didn't do it cos the SD for 24 hr recording is not cheap. Then regretted not doing it when one stupid motorbike parked besides my car in HDB fell and scratched my front wheel arch. Dunno which MF did it.... sigh!
Got motion detect.....dunno the megapixel...where you got this from. how many megapixel

I think you can buy online at at a much cheaper price. at least $100 cheaper, most of them got it online in bulk and sell it.
Here's the link, look the same with Night vision lights about S$155
http://www.dealextre...ls.dx/sku.47145
Yup many online places selling, dx should be one of the cheapest.
I always order those small items from DX. There was once when I saw this person with one box full of this type of car cameras. I believe they buy in bulk and sell online. The profit margin seems alot. One set can earn 100 plus?I was looking this too, but eventually got the one without LEDs as I read the LEDs can reflect off the windshield badly at night, and also if you have solar film, I don't think much of the IR can get out anyway.

Definitely. The worst thing is some local sellers don't even have much value-add. They blatantly copy the original ad with all the grammar and technical mistakes, and then mark up >100%. Warranty got to send back china/hk. Might as well order it yourself.

however realise dat when set to motion detect 'on' the recorder will split every minute...
anyone using F880 managed to resolve this? cos i managed to convert it to a 24hr survelliance camera via car battery power so din want to use normal recording else it may well overwrite my previous clips.. however, to have a clip every minute means there will be a lot of files... (imagine 60mins = 60 clips)
still in the process of transfer all the files to pc... shall upload for viewing soon....

Does the motion detector really work very efficiently?
And one thing i noticed, AF is always on when camera is switched on. Have to manually change to MF. No permanent setting for default MF right brother parkingidiot?

btw the cam will stop recording when there is no motion for 30secs. only upon moving off den it'll start recording again

Bro,
Hows the resolution like when u left it overnite in the carpark coz i believe most mscp at night cld b quite dim in terms of lighting.
Today morning when im going to work & it was kinda pouring, with the lights off in my mscp & without my headlight on, its almost equivalent to looking at shadows. My F880 is not set to ir mode btw. During normal daytime recording, i noticed dat i cld see abit of reflections of the cam holder thru the windscreen too. This shld b normal lah but anyone noes how to minimise this reflection?

So does the camera record on motion detector say, when, fatimah walking pass or when someone is vandalising the front of your car or when a car reversing and bang onto yours?
And dunno why when I tried to take pictures in 8 megapixel, the quality is worse than my 3mp handphone camera.

F880 cam's motion detection activation is very sensitive i muz say... move abit oso starts recording.
but did one realize that the motion detector recording can only record 1 min file only. Meaning it will auto recycles after one min recording. Anyone facing this problem?F880 cam's motion detection activation is very sensitive i muz say... move abit oso starts recording.

Lol! for these HD movies, first thing is to get very high speed internet connection! No joke trying to upload 100-200MB file on 512kb adsl!
it cant edit .mov files leh... tried alr
The windows 7 version of movie maker can edit mov files. But the one in Win XP can't. The videos I uploaded in my blog are all edited in Windows Movie Maker. It's super user friendly - much easier to use than the traditional ulead/pinnacle s/w, esp when you need to make a quick edit for youtube upload.

Get tit convert first b4 uploadLol! for these HD movies, first thing is to get very high speed internet connection! No joke trying to upload 100-200MB file on 512kb adsl!
but did one realize that the motion detector recording can only record 1 min file only. Meaning it will auto recycles after one min recording. Anyone facing this problem?
yeah.. doraemarc also faced same problem - since you also got the same effect - looks like it's confirmed must be the case.
I'll feedback to supplier to find out reason why.
Does the motion detector really work very efficiently?
And one thing i noticed, AF is always on when camera is switched on. Have to manually change to MF. No permanent setting for default MF right brother parkingidiot?
I could not find manual focus setting. I suspect its AF all the way - sometimes this is irritating. The older F500 had fixed focus. I can't make up my mind which is better or worse!
it cant edit .mov files leh... tried alr
you can try using this video editing software called "Any Video Converter". Works well for me and has all the functions I need (e.g. can snip videos, mute video, crop the frame, fast converting)

Bro didn't know it had developed so far.... since Jun the first ever GB had been successful till now with the latest model. Anw, F500 serve me well and I mounted it up to terminal for surveillance just in MSCP till next day...
In some greater length of 24hrs mode, the screen will turn "white" meaning lens saturated liao or so called "heated". Once off it and cool t down for a while it will be back to normal. It proven it strong and reliable plus durable of this set. ANw did I mentioned of fitting it up cost only $18 in one of the acc shop. if plus switch it abt $28.
Had a minor accident. Now need to upload the video for the insurance company to claim the other party.
thanks.

Just burn a dvd and pass it to the insurance company. Previously, when Mr Chong knocked into my car and lied in his report, I called up Income directly and the CS told me to pass her the recording at any branch office, attention to her name.
No need to edit, so that the CS will see the whole video start from carpark till the incident. This is to show that the video you submitted is real. Just inform the timeline that the accident happened.
ta bu leh, show them full video may get me into trouble. im chonging on the road.
Bro Jtay,
finally can watch the video after downloading any-video-convert.
Im trying to see how to cut the video to the last 2 mins.
thanks bro

juz press the joystick navi button... it'll switch to MF
So does the camera record on motion detector say, when, fatimah walking pass or when someone is vandalising the front of your car or when a car reversing and bang onto yours?
And dunno why when I tried to take pictures in 8 megapixel, the quality is worse than my 3mp handphone camera.
yes it's very sensitive.... juz tried moving off very slowly n it starts recording before speed reach even 5km/h
ta bu leh, show them full video may get me into trouble.
chey... this kind of thing don't say so loud... dunno who is reading the forum...

i am using this video conversion previously to convert my video clip for accident claim.
not bad and it also can trim and mute.
during conversion, make sure to convert to a few format first, then email to the most common file format to the workshop to claim third party.
Bro,
Hows the resolution like when u left it overnite in the carpark coz i believe most mscp at night cld b quite dim in terms of lighting.
Today morning when im going to work & it was kinda pouring, with the lights off in my mscp & without my headlight on, its almost equivalent to looking at shadows. My F880 is not set to ir mode btw. During normal daytime recording, i noticed dat i cld see abit of reflections of the cam holder thru the windscreen too. This shld b normal lah but anyone noes how to minimise this reflection?
mine is open carpark... so the resolution is like driving time
i'm trying daylight mode with IR auto now.
but i tried with nite mode with auto IR before also n find e same prob of reflection due to IR operation. however when there is light source from the front (headlights of incoming vehicle; i believe tail lights shld can also) the IR will auto off n reflection gone. but mine is not the reflection of cam holder leh.. juz the row of doraemons on my dashboard...
ANw did I mentioned of fitting it up cost only $18 in one of the acc shop. if plus switch it abt $28.
Bro - can you send me the details? I would like to list a few options for the bro who want to connect direct to battery; if you don't mind, I'd like to add this as well.
great option. i also want to install direct connect to battery for my front/rear view camera.Bro - can you send me the details? I would like to list a few options for the bro who want to connect direct to battery; if you don't mind, I'd like to add this as well.
this camera is so useful. 100% money well spent.
thumb up!
Tested recording for 4 hours with 10mins clips. No issues at all.
By the way, i noticed if I enable the IR light, the left screen will appear white (bright) patch. Turn off the IR light video screen will back to normal. Anyone having same issue=?

Just to share, I got my F880 recently from Parkingidiot... yesterday I went to SimLim to buy a Trancends 16GB SDHC Class4 at $34 from bizgram (#05-50).

Im currently temporarily using a 4G class 4 on my F880 too & no problem.. but oredi ordered online for a 16G class 10.
This white patch is normal coz i oso face the same problem when the IR is activated in daylight mode, but when i sw to night mode wif IR on, the white patch will b gone. So i supposed the white patch acts as a bright sunlight shining on the lens in daylight mode thus forming the white patches ard it. The instruction manual oso states dat if using IR, muz sw to night mode. This cld b the reason y.

Think mayb when im free, i can try sticking matt black sticker papers on the windscreen ard the cam holder area. May reduce reflections...
