Cameras and accessories made specifically for your cars or motorbikes are becoming increasingly popular and can be used as a normal ‘dash cam’ or for the more adventurous types a way to document your journey. They are generally designed to be mounted onto the windscreen of your car to record footage while you are driving or can be strapped onto your bike, helmet or chest if you are driving a motorbike.

One of the best functions of this camera is the intelligent control which means that it will automatically start and stop recording meaning that you do not have to worry about starting and stopping which will make sure that you will never accidentally forget to record again. One benefit this camera has over most other action cameras is that it is built using a specially designed lens either 67 degrees or 84 degrees, these special lenses make curves in the road clear where typical action cameras will flatten these out making it difficult to anticipate the road. In order to withstand severe and constant vibrations, the camera is made from machine moulded aluminium just like many performance car parts.
