View Full Version : Dual Lens DVR
so i got myself one of these (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/390630690081)
and took it for a test spin, obvioulsy some setting will need to be adjusted, it doesn't store the videos as video in video you have to do this yourself which is easy enough if you have the right software, anyway heres a sample video of it straight out the box, the rear camera i just gaffa taped to the window just for the test :lol

so then i tweaked the settings a bit and moved the rear camera to a better position

no not yet and tbh i dont think it would see very well in the dark where i live as there is not much street lighting

i got it more for off roading but i have noticed the rear camera is a far better quality picture than the front one, i still need to tweek the settings aswell so will keep reporting back

Will be interested in your results im looking for one for road use had couple of incidents where people have run into my trailer
mine reads number plates very well , but only has one lense , not like steves
Mine also reads number plates,and is pretty good at night also.I did have a dual lens one.But it is sadly broken.

What's the legality of these CCTV camera's? if you have CCTV on a property the law states you must display signs saying that CCTV is in operation or at least did the last time that I'd heard about it.
Also could the recordings be used to incriminate yourself?
These are obviously becoming more popular and the chances are we've all been on the recordings of other drivers and not been aware of it.

You do not have to display CCTV signs.As for these in car camera's.Everyone is allowed to film in a public place.:)

I've done a Google and it appears for domestic use there is no requirement for warning signs. It's commercial premises that have to display warning signs.

as long as your camera cant see into someone elses house it doesn't matter

for the night you can get stand alone infra red lights that run on 12v.could be worth looking into.
i have 1 at home lights up a very large area and the cctv works much better.
