Dogcamsport: HD Bullet Camera For Road Magazine





















Look what we got in the post over the weekend! Oh yeah baby! It's this amazing bit of kit from VT experts, Dogcam: http://www.dogcamsport.co.uk/. These guys are utterly fabulous folk – the UK's premier specialists in helmet camera video technology – a family-run firm from Cornwall, with unreal knowledge, first class products, amazing customer service and brilliantly friendly. Road Magazine has just bought one of there incredible MiniDVR HD Bullet Camera, for videos you'll soon be seeing here on the blog and www.roadmagazine.co.uk website. The 5th generation of MiniDVR bullet camera systems with portable digital video recorder, films in HD, with  a staggering 200% improvement in video quality when compared to its predecessor. It can achieve full 1080p HD video from the small bullet camera and stores the video on to the recorder using SD cards up to 64gb in size. The camera part is fully waterproof and the recorder part is rugged and splash proof. The camera comes with a 1.5m cable and uses a locking MiniHDMI Connector, and you can buy suction mounts to get all the groovy angles too, suitable for for car windscreens, handlebars and helmets (we've got 'em!). As soon as you turn the system on you will see a preview from the camera showing on the screen. This allows you to position the camera perfectly before you start filming. You can also use the screen to view back the videos you have recorded and for viewing photos you have taken with the system. The battery will power the Mini DVR HD system for at least 3 hours record time and spare batteries are also available if you scroll down towards the bottom of the page. At full quality, you can record about 4 hours of video on to a 16gb card and this can be expanded up to 64gb if required. Because the camera and the recorder parts are separate, it makes the camera one of the smallest 1080p HD imagers in the world. You will hardly even notice it's there! Using a HDMI cable, you can plug the system in to any HD television and stream full HD video back which looks fantastic when using a high quality HD TV. The MiniDVR HD DVR has a built-in microphone and you can also plug in an external microphone for recording higher quality audio and for getting the mic out of the way of wind when using with a car or bike. Supplied as part of the kit is a wired remote controller which will let you turn on and start recording by pressing one button. The remote flashes bright red to let you know the system is recording. The MiniDVR HD helmet camera has many other features such as motion detection and a car mode in which the system will turn on and start recording video in a LOOP fashion when the memory card is full. And a file recovery mode had been added to the system. If for any reason your video files should become corrupt, the MiniDVR HD will try to recover them automatically. We can't wait to get started, and you'll be able to see our results here on the Road Blog and on www.roadmagazine.co.uk and www.skiddplayer.com soon!
