Description
The Mi-Witness HD V2 is the latest offering from Mi-Witness and brings to the table some fantastic improvements. It is an advanced dash camera that retains a very minimal look making it one of the most discreet dash cams currently available.
Both the front & rear camera will now record in 720p HD, perhaps some will be surprised that Mi-Witness haven’t opted to upgrade these to full 1080p capability. However anyone who has previous experience with a dash camera will know that 720p HD is more than adequate in providing high quality video evidence. An integrated CPL filter on the front camera will go some way in further improving the recording quality by reducing windscreen glare.
There are many more fantastic features, scroll down to see a detailed explanation of each. We will be adding more to this page in the coming days, if you have a question that isn’t answered please use our online chat facility our drop us an email.
Video Resolution & Quality
The Mi-Witness HD V2 dash cam uses a 2MP 1/3.2 inch CMOS camera and can record in HD (1280 x 720 both front & rear) at 30 frames per second. The camera comes with a CPL filter which can be clipped over the lens to reduce windscreen glare.
The sample video provides a good indication of the quality of recording you can expect, this is recorded in 720p @30fps. Please note, YouTube compression can degrade picture quality, make sure you have selected the highest resolution that YouTube will allow you to watch it back in. This can be selected by clicking on the settings cog when watching the video.
Integrated CPL Filter
The Mi-Witness HD V2 is the first dash camera to offer a completely integrated clip on CPL filter to reduce glare from the windscreen. The best thing is it’s included free of charge with every camera.
You simple unclip the lens surround and replace it with a second surround that has an integrated CPL filter. The filter does NOT use a magnetic and will remain firmly in place once clipped in.
Recording Modes
The Mi-Witness HD V2 dash camera has three recording modes and will automatically switch between continuous recording, which will start when you turn the ignition on and parking mode which will be activated once the ignition has been switched off.
Incident recording will be activated when an impact is detected automatically saving from 10 seconds before the impact and 30 seconds after to ensure you have video evidence of the entire event. Parking mode events work in exactly the same way but are also triggered when motion is detected.
You can adjust the sensitivity of the motion and impact detection within the camera settings.
External GPS
Mi-Witness have designed this camera to be installation friendly, the HD V2 dash camera has it’s GPS built into a separate module that simply slides onto the mount of the front camera.
This is a great idea as more vehicles now have a metal element running through the windscreen that can block GPS signals. If this is the case with your vehicle you can simply purchase an extension lead enabling you to position the GPS module somewhere else in the vehicle where a signal can be obtained.
Built-in WiFi For Connecting A Smartphone
The Mi-Witness HD V2 dash camera will allow your IOS or Android device to connect to it using WiFi in the same way you would connect to your home WiFi. Once connected you can use the Mi-Viewer App to view the cameras live, review or download footage and adjust the settings. The app also allows you to easily format the SD card.
Unique to the Mi-Witness HD V2 is the fact that it has no buttons, it really is “plug and play”. The WiFi will automatically come on when the camera enters normal recording mode. You simply go into your phones settings > WiFi > connect to dash camera using password- 12345678
