Hi guys,
Question........being a bit travel lagged, I went and purchased an SD card, for my nice new, front facing video camera.........only to find that the slot is tiny.....and the info says TF card......now am not really a total dimwit (?), so am I correct in thinking that I need to get one of the mini SD cards with the full size adaptor to read the card to pc/device?
I can use the card in my camera, no no great loss.
I was thinking a 16Mb card is enough to loop record, until it has the situation that I don`t want to happen.....

Yeah mini sd card with a adapter, make sure the card is class 10 or better.

Mine is also the micro sd too but the 32gb version but the big thing is the class, 10 is fine for mine too. I put a class 4 i think it was in there to test it but it caused all kinds of problems.

Aldi had a class 10 32Gig recently around £13, they are only available by asking at the till, too easy to nick I guess
It is worth asking may be some left.
Works great in my cameras

AlexD333 · 31-03-2015, 19:48

Yup, as mentioned class 10 card needed.

johnb5177 · 31-03-2015, 19:52

Guys,
Thank you for all your advice.
I was in Aldi tea time.......I will go back and check it out ASAP.
Wilkinsons do good prices on memory cards as well...

From memory cards to caravans to socks.........never mind the Nissan 4x4`s.......

again, quality/price, don't expect too much but for the use they are intended they are very good.

Anyone using the type Clivvy put the link up for

as you can now get them for under £20 Going to get a dash cam after today as I had to swerve to miss a head on crash thanks to some stupid t@rt driving the opersate way down a duel carriage way & also taking the round about the wrong direction

Have seen the fiesta around so god help her when I next see her as i'll be having words & won't be nice about it

I have two sim cards (both 32 gig class 10) for my dash cam.One for normal road use,and the other for any off road driving..

clivvy · 01-04-2015, 10:00

The cheap China ones like what I have are just that. For example, I have a newer one I got at xmas. It has the front camera and a rear camera. Quality is good but now for no particular reason the screen has gone reverse, flipped and solarized...!!! Still works, just the screen is useless....I think that one was about £35 so its no huge issue

That's what helps to make this forum so friendly, I've recently mentioned my new granddaughter, my new shoulder joint, etc etc
This is the first place I come to when wanting to know anything else other than Nissan 4x4's

Let's face it, if we only talked about Nissan faults, there wouldn't be many posts now would there?

We even keep past members who don't even own a Nissan anymore, what other club does that?

This looks interesting @ £20

this is brilliant, use it all the time, even when on the road, is handy to cover your back if someone pulls out in front of you etc

jims-terrano · 03-04-2015, 15:06

I've been looking into the type with a camera for the rear too. Wish there was a really small camera for the front and for the rear that is really discreet so that it's not actually obvious that you have a camera.

These are not the cheapest, certainly if you want one front and rear, but they are really good quality. I have a driving instructor friend who has them running all the time, since a bus driver tried to pull a fast one in an insurance claim.
They are almost invisible from the outside of the car, with the front one hidden behind the rear view mirror.
