| 1247411 | 2011-12-06 07:10:00 | Anyone know in NZ where to get a digital camera and a recording device SD card I guess. I intend putting one in my service truck to capture images of idiot drivers cutting me off, crossing the centre line in Birdwood road, pulling out in front me scenarios. Seen some in Trademe but they look a little junky, nothing in DSE, cant spot anything in Jaycar. 12v or 24v would be good for power supply. :stare: |

| 1247413 | 2011-12-06 07:31:00 | My boss was selling such a thing for a while. It had GPS tracking too, so it could tell you your speed and where you were at the time. I'll ask him tomorrow where he got them from. | pine-o-cleen (2955) | ||

| 1247417 | 2011-12-06 22:04:00 | Most Android Phones will do this, if you get a dock for them. The LG P500 was coming from Vodafone for dirt-cheap and included a dock too. Then just dock / charge it, aim it at the road, and fire up one of the many apps designed to do just this :) |

| 1247418 | 2011-12-06 22:23:00 | The biggie in the business is GoPro. They make cameras for mounting on the dashboard or wearing on your arm when cycling. Cost about $600. They record at 30 fps or 60 fps in a way that allows each frame to be viewed in isolation. (mjpeg?) | BBCmicro (15761) | ||
| 1247419 | 2011-12-08 00:58:00 | man, I want one just because. So many toys...so few dollars :( | Barnabas (4562) | ||
| 1247420 | 2011-12-08 03:24:00 | man, I want one You might be able to get an old-model camera on Trademe. The key things are HD recording in the Mjpeg format (or similar. Not AVCHD or MP4) and a wideangle lens. I have a Panasonic FX38 that records at 30 fps in the required format (actually makes a MOV file) and has a 24 mm lens. The FX35 is an earlier model, the same except 3x zoom With my FX38 I can walk down the street pointing the camera vaguely in front of me, waist-high, and (in Irfanview) read the number plates of cars that pass at 50 kph either direction |
