Best KZread product review I’ve ever seen. Great job!

Great video for non techies. Just enough info on each product. The frame on the technical differences sold me on the 57.

Thanks for the video. I just bought the 47 on friday as my first real standalone dash camera thats not a weird afterthought on a GPS tablet. It's been great so far and I really like all of the cool features.

@@shabeenak5653 I have it mounted so far forward on my dash that I usually can't see the screen. I also can't hear the warning over engine and road noise but I use it in my semi truck so it wouldn't be like that in all uses.

Thanks for the overview, very straight forward. One suggestion would be to upload your content in at least a 1440p so we can actually see the difference in capture quality. Its all just 1080p 🤷‍♂😂

Thanks for the comparison! Well done and easily understood.

Very informative video....thanks.

Good stuff. One thing Garmin should've capitalized on is USB-C connection, that way they wouldn't have to include additional stuff that'll end up lost. 😅 I will ask a good question though. How many of these cameras can you have simultaneously connected in the Drive app? I want to run 3 for forward, left rear and right rear in my truck. Since they have voice command for saving video, I can save all 3 directions at the same time... Priceless for being able to prove situational conditions during an event investigation.

Awesome commentary 💯❤️👍

Great informative video. Many thanks

Great work, I do appreciate the info provided in this video. Thanks!

Hi Eric, thank you for the fantastic video you posted. I watch all your videos related to the Garmin Dash Cameras, and I think I might purchase a Garmin Dash Cam 57. Just curious; If I plug it in and I continuously supply power to the Garmin Dash Cam 57 via a Portable-Charger-Power-Bank when the car is parked and the engine is off, will the Parking Guard feature continue to function, and be activated and recording?

30 or 60 fps has nothing to do with if it's blurry or not. It's the shutter time that depends on. A longer shutter is open, the more blurry it's going to be, but also more light enters the sensor.

Hi, I have a Mini 2 and I was wondering if it's possible to have the speed display on it at the bottom left just like you had it displayed on your DC47 in the video! I can't find any settings on the app on how I could turn that on.

Like many of the Garmin product lines the unit will automatically shut off shortly after it looses power. Garmin did think of this and offers a solution. They offer a constant power block that will bypass this and allow your dash cam to continue monitoring. www.garmin.com/en-US/p/pn/010-12530-23

Dashcams get hot behind windshields especially during summer. Have you noticed any heat related problems with any of these units? The magnet mounting system is a big improvement over the older suction cup mounts. Yes, I just subscribed & rang the notification bell. The 57 is the one I'm considering.

Hi Alexander! Yes, this is a normal setting that you can select to put your Dash Cam into a standby mode. Of course it will light up if the camera detects an event that might cause it to start recording. You can also turn down your sensitivity level if you notice it still wants to light up and record when you really dont want it to.

the mini 2 could record offline, if ya wire it up to an external battery. This way, you don't have to worry about draining your actual car battery

The 30 FPS and the 60FPS have nothing to do with blur. That’s the shutter speed of the camera. All having higher FPS does would be to allow you do more with slow motion in post editing. Most videos are exported and watched at either 24fps or 30fps. Having 60fps does not give you better video quality. The higher resolution gives you higher quality video

Where did you learn this? 24fps is perceived by our brain as a series of very fast images, that’s why most movies look the way they look. Human eye can see up to 90Hz (fps if you like) and more. 60fps is more lifelike and smooth to a human eye. Does 60fps have any benefits for a dash cam? Only with crazy fast movement, because there’s more chance to catch a license plate in between the frames. So I would say there’s no real benefit other that the footage looking smooth and more like real life.

@Bespoke_Whips

@@jamesf3382 the human eye can see up to 90hz but that is not what our eyes perceive movement as in its natural form. In its natural form, we see things at 24fps. That’s what is most natural for us as humans to see. This is why things at 60 fps looks weird to many people almost like it’s ai generated. It is almost to smooth in comparison to what we see naturally. This also only is part of the issue. Shutter speed is another major factor. If the shutter speed isn’t proper to what the frame rate is, it looks wrong because it has the I correct amount of motion blur

Are there benefits (resolution/capture) of the 67W over the 57? I've seen varying comments.

Lastly...the mini 2 does not have GPS. That's preferable. Ya see...if you're recording exactly where you are and how fast you're going...it can and will be used as evidence against you. If you turn off the GPS on one of the three models....you will be drilled in court and have to explain why. So...if you don't want to incriminate yourself...get the mini 2.
