Lots of features for little money

I wanted to install my first DVR in my truck to protect me in the event of an accident. I live in my converted ambulance all the time and spend a lot of time driving on bad roads at times. I chose this Kingslim camera because it's made by Akaso, a name I know and trust for the action cameras I use for my YouTube channel (youtube.com/thecampulanceman). Their action cameras are full-featured cameras that cost significantly less than comparable cameras, which is why I chose the Kingslim D2. I was impressed with the features it has and the fact that it comes with a second camera. This second camera can be installed as a rear view camera to keep an eye on the rear of the vehicle. This comes into play when using park mode/gyroscope mode where the truck is tracked for movement while parked. Imagine someone decides to vandalize or rob a truck while I'm out camping and these 2 cameras are filming the action from the front and back! The camera uses an SD card which I had to insert and this allows me to remove the card and copy the video. transferred to my computer and used in my editing software - adding driving footage to my videos. That aside, the video quality is excellent and I'm impressed with the lens angle and correction, as well as the clarity. It pairs very well with footage from the 1080p action camera I use and I would recommend this camera for driving shots if you are creating this type of video content. The build quality and finish of the camera is top notch and I found nothing. about a camera I don't like. I'm a techie and these things are important to me, so I give the camera a high recommendation.

Pros
  • Great job
Cons
  • Older model
