Now that you have a dash cam on your hands, you might be wondering how can you make the most out of this investment? To help you figure it out, here are five key guidelines you might want to consider doing:
Effective Dash Cam Usage
No. 1: Try altering the camera’s g-sensor sensitivity settings. Most dash cameras have a g-sensor lock that acts as the locking mechanism for the video footage. It will automatically save and protect it in case of accidents. However there are times that it can mistakenly activate when you lightly bump onto something or if you take a sharp turn. A lot of people don’t realise that adjustments could be made to this, so it is best to consult your camera’s user manual to find out how to do it.
No. 2: Avoid focusing your camera on the sky too much. Some people tend to place their cameras in a position that excessively shows the sky, however, that won’t be any help if that’s all it captures. Also the camera will pick up too much sunlight and it will cause glares that would affect the quality of the footage, which won’t be any use to you in the long run. It is best to level it in a way that shows the road, but also allows enough light to make it clear and nice.
No. 3: Make adjustments on the camera’s video quality and frame rate. Majority of cameras allow options to change the type of resolution and also its frame rate. Try to set the camera to the highest resolution possible in order for it to capture a high-grade video recording that will be able to clearly illustrate what happens. If you are constantly driving at night then it is advisable that you turn on the camera’s wide dynamic range or night mode so that you’ll be able to use the it effectively.
No. 4: Take the camera out and test the footage once a month. Try to extract the files from the camera and see if it is still functioning properly. It will be truly heartbreaking if you find out that the footage of the accident you were involved in wasn’t any good. Do this on a monthly basis to get a better sense of its performance and adjust according to your needs.
Those are just simple things to consider when utilising your dashboard camera. This is a simple tool that could make a whole difference in the way you view your safety while driving.
