I needed a body cam at work- I had an incident where I was accused of something I did not do or say. Nothing serious, but I don’t like being accused of something I didn’t do. I figured I have a dash cam for my own protection- why not the same concept for me when I have to support customers or users?
This body cam is compact, but not completely stealthy. It’s not really hidden, but that’s not the intent of this camera- I don’t think it’s supposed to be viewed as a “spy camera”. It’s fairly unobtrusive though. Most official use of a body cam my law enforcement has the camera mounted front and center on their vest, and it’s not hidden at all.
The camera comes with a 64GB micro-SD card, and can handle up to 128GB. I haven’t tested to see how much video I can put on the camera… my guess it that I can get about 200 minutes of continuous video with a 128GB card.
This camera picks up a lot of noise from rubbing on your clothes when worn in a pocket (like in my example picture). You can adjust microphone sensitivity in the camera settings… it defaults to ‘5’, I have mine set on ‘6’ (scale from 1-10).
The video zoom is electronic. It defaults to wide angle. You can adjust to your needs.
The physical camera lens can be rotated from one side of the camera to the other.
All in all, if you need a conspicuous (but unobtrusive) body cam, this unit works very well.
