What prompted me to buy it was a near miss with a biker who overtook oncoming traffic and missed us by what seamed like inches in one of the local towns.
Does the camera come with a forcefield or something then? How would it have prevented that?!
It wouldn't have prevented an accident, but would have helped prove exactly who was at fault, and given the (low) standard of driving that seems to be common in that area and how busy it is I really just want something that will help settle any arguments if I'm unlucky enough to be in an accident (or witness one).Does the camera come with a forcefield or something then?

Ah I shall do that tonight, I was rather unimpressed with the connection to the app but put it down to the application/tablet.good choice WW

Can anyone report similar or had any better luck?
I just checked the footage from the 770 and the PQ is very good, although unfortunately due to the way the car windscreen is angled I do have it showing a fair bit of dash at the bottom.
I've got it set up in front of the rear view mirror, which means it's very hard to see from outside the car and isn't in my eyeline, whilst also not being blocked by the wipers etc.

I was slowing in that pic because just behind the car is a crossroads and people pull out without looking, or realising there are cars coming as the view is obscured (I've just passed a bend).
Should you be able to read the number plate from the picture above?
For me a dashcam is only going to be truly useful if you can clearly and positively identify a vehicle (and individuals) from the footage. So much of the examples I see are not good enough to work out it was a red/white/yellow car that hit me
This is especially true at night or in the rain.
A bit like the usual crimestoppers CCTV footage "we think from the CCTV it was 3x people, maybe..."
Are there much more expensive options that allow for 8m-10m of clarity to read a number plate?
I would imagine the quality of the systems can go up a lot, either using better cameras or more of them but then you start to run into issue with things like the storage requirements and processing power meaning bigger/more power hungry units and larger/more obvious cameras.
