Review of Garmin GDR35, High Definition Standalone Driving Recorder, Your Car CCTV

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)

Garmin GDR35 Unboxing

Garmin GDR35 & VIRB Elite

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.

Review Garmin VIRB Elite Action Camera (Life. Camera. Action)

Did you ever see the video of people skiing / sports with first person view (First Person View)? Action video created with the name Action Cam. Unlike the recording with a camcorder or mobile phone, Action Cam is designed resilient even waterproof.

Looking at the increasingly high demand, Garmin responded by creating a unique Action Cam Garmin VirB given name. There are 2 types of VirB and Garmin Garmin VirB Elite, the difference is in the sensor / connection Elite fuller.

Well the following review Garmin VirB Elite plus minus:

- Designed with a rugged design means resistant to severe conditions such as dropped / slammed then this camera will be fine

- Recording with 1080p video quality.

- There is a LCD 1.4 "display with Chroma type. Chroma means the LCD is not shiny but will be assisted by external light to illuminate the LCD itself. So if there is no light then the LCD does not show anything. However, when illuminated by a flashlight or bright light of the sun, the LCD seems obvious. The purpose of use is the reason Chroma LCD battery life.

- Built-in sensors complete: GPS to record the position korrdinat; Accelerometer to record the movement and Barometric altimeter for elevation data.

- Batteries are lasting 3 hours in recording mode 1080p (2000mAh) and can use the mobile phone charger / POWERBANK if you want to record longer

- Waterproof to IPX7 certification

- Video recording diverse, in addition you can record 1080p with slow motion mode, for example in action in the air with the skateboard, record slow motion style and the results will be very cool.

- Can record timelapse is usually to record the movement of the cloud motion eg long / sun.

- Wide Lens awesome, even if the arch photo taken at close range

- The battery can be removed, so they can buy a separate battery for recording much longer

- Ability ANT + sensors and connect with other equipment. For example you can connect to a bike cadence sensor for data, connect to the heart of HRM to the data or tempeh sensors for temperature data

- WIFI, serves to connect to iOS and Android where the latter can control the settings of your phone wirelessly VirB. Example you put in the next room while you control it from another room.

- Can connect to Garmin Handheld GPS and Garmin Watch. But can not for the preview image like in cell phones, but only as a remote control such as the rec button.

- Digital Video Stabilization to reduce shock

- Able to take photos in wide 16Megapixels

- Photos can be taken even in video recording mode

- Provided VirB Edit software on your computer / Mac to edit / manage the photos (http://www.garmin.com/en-US/shop/downloads/virb-edit)

- Software VirB Cool Edit can add overlays such as speed or track traversed

- In the package supplied bracket with connectors that many joints, so the recording in a difficult position allows

- VirB waterproof in 30 minutes at a depth of 1 meter, if it took up to 50 meters, need to buy the optional waterproof case

- Photo burst with ability 6 / s 3 / s @ 16MP, 5 / s @ 12MP or 10 / s @ 8MP

- There Mirco HDMI connector, can be directly displayed on the LCD TV if you buy the cord

- Micro SD card can use up to 64GB

- As an indicator only, micro SD 32GB can record 7 hours of 720p quality. While 1080p video takes 13min duration 1.86GB or 8.5GB per hour

.

Meanwhile, his weakness:

- There is no app for Windows Phone

- There is no backlight, if the night should bring a flashlight

- The movement of the camera and look at the screen there is a split second delay

- Recording only 30 fps 1080p maximum, could rival 60fps

- The unit is rather hot if used long

Conclusion:

Garmin Elite VirB be full tool creation and imagination, you are free to make a video with your style. If used to calm the atmosphere be like regular camcorders. If it is used for exciting action such as jumping from a height or in the water, Garmin VirB Elite can also do it for you. Unlimited imagination can create in moments recorded in Garmin VirB.

Slow motion to create a video that can not be captured by the eye.

With the Android system, opening millions of possibilities previously unthinkable. Not only serves as a machine like a computer with the ability to check email, chat, or office but also the function of the cloud. GPS data, photos, video can be instantly uploaded to the cloud.

- UV sensor is unique, located in the front of silvery white, UV detect function is too strong example above or in the snowy mountains were its UV exposure can be dangerous

- Not only WIFI, but also NFC and Bluetooth and ANT +

 Meanwhile weaknesses of Garmin Monterra:

- The form of large and heavy, with 1 hand operation not easy

- Low screen resolution (272 × 480 pixels), could be because the battery life is pursued (while in the field)
