Garmin GDR35, HD Standalone Driving Recorder |
Have you seen the video on youtube when a meteor crashed in the sky Russia some time ago?
One of the tools used today to record this unique event is a Car DVR, a tool designed to record nonstop in the car like a CCTV at home.
Well Car DVR like this is the Garmin Nuvi review 2575r. However issued Garmin recorder was still the basic class GDR10. Now Garmin again remove the latest models of type Garmin GDR35, where its much more. But remember accordance standalone title, it means Garmin GDR35 is a stand-alone unit, in contrast to GDR10 on 2575r Nuvi, Nuvi GPS units you need in order to make the recording, while GDR35 already do not need anymore Nuvi GPS (stand alone).
There are important you need to know about this tool are:
- This is not a GPS navigation, GPS contained in GDR35 function for video geotagging, which record the position coordinates of corresponding movement of the video. So you are buying Garmin GDR35 still need to buy a GPS navigation again (separately) if you need navigation.
- Built-in LCD 2.4 ", not a touch screen. But enough to make playback on the unit GDR35
- There is an internal battery that can record 1 hour if not connected to the car cigarette charger
- There is a gravity sensor, it is not owned Nuvi 2575r. Its function is to detect sudden movement of the car brakes or tilted or upside down due to a car crash that reverses the GDR35 can sense changes in gravity and record it in lock mode / file protection.
- Can also be used to record the rear camera in the car so that the display screen split into two. But you have to buy another camera with the type Garmin GBC30 . The surplus, the addition of the camera does not require additional power, meaning cigarette plugs are used to keep one.
- Fast F2.0 aperture, meaning recorder at night would be better as a night light with the arrest of more sensitive
- Wide lens, wide angle 110 A very useful feature, as proved in the 10-lane highway with toll booths can be recorded everything without difficulty
- In addition there are gravity sensors that can record in protection mode, you can also press the 1 key to lock Garmin GDR35 a video for you
- There are 4 buttons below, I call buttons 1,2,3,4.
- Button 1 function to record in protection mode, if there is a significant event press this button then your files will be safe / protected.
- Protection function due Garmin GDR35 recording is nonstop, if memory full then the first file will be deleted in the order based on the oldest file. Therefore protection mode gives security to the files are not deleted
- Button 2 is the setting, the setting is on the button
- Button 3 is a playback button, video and photos can be seen at this 3 menu
- Button 4 is a snapshot / photo unusual, although video recording nonstop, when you push the button 4 then you will save your time snapshot corresponding photos.
- Recording is 1080p, 720p and WVGA. Meanwhile, if you purchase additional GBC30 to dualcam the recording is only 720p.
- PC software is a useful tool to see the results of the video recording including a GPS map on a computer. Coordinates videos also vary according to the movement of the car.
- There is a built-in microphone and speaker, you can record sound at the same time. And the speaker works when playback or when the unit is lit, a woman's voice saying "Start recording" will be active
- Mode of recording with 8GB memory card is as follows (memory card is not included in the package)

Conclusion:
Good job, Garmin GDR35 can record well when I drive. Each time the car is turned on, the active and direct Garmin GDR35 record, and when the car is turned off GDR35 also auto off. Each time the car hit a hole / ugly way it will display the message "Detected Event" and immediately lock the video that is suspected something.
Wide angle is also very good, just put Garmin GDR35 position in the middle of the windshield, the front wide view of the car can look good even to the point of blind spots that our eyes sometimes overlooked.
What I like is the ability mengoverlay text below the video data and coordinate the date and time and the speed of the car also appeared. Be a special CCTV recording style of your car.
G-sensor data are also recorded properly.
