ITRONICS ITB-100HD 1080p True HD Car DVR "Black Box" Recorder with GPS Review
You can trust my review, bad or good is your choice and i hope you can try to buy this product and then you know this product good or no. Next time you can make a review for another people.
Just an FYI, I didn't purchase this here, so I won't comment on sellers or prices.
Short review:
+ Full HD! - can read license plates and see details clearly in daylight
+ Built-in GPS is surprisingly accurate with both location and speed.
+ Built-in accelometer records any bumps or "shocks" the vehicle receives.
+ Good quality mounting sticker
+ Several configuration options
+ Updateable firmware - if you can find it
+ Automatically over-writes oldest files when card is full
+ Small and semi-inconspicuous
+ Automatically saves video when unplugged
+-Parking mode option if camera is powered
+-Default configuration options don't work well, but are changed easily.
+-Included 8GB card is only 4 hours of HD video. Easily upgradeable to 32GB card though.
- Not so great at night - this is where the 5th star went.
- Expect broken English, as this is a Korean product.
- Quick start guide only Korean - English manual is on the SD card.
- Software tends to crash/lock up fairly often
- I believe there is no manufacturer warranty for the US.
- No button to permanently keep a recording
- Built-in mic records quiet and muffled.
Details:
Only 1 button on camera: Microphone toggle on or off.
List of configurable options for the CAMERA from within the SOFTWARE:
* Only one physical button: Microphone on or off.

* Brightness: Standard & Bright. Literally just makes the recording brighter - doesn't seem to improve quality at all.
* Shock sensitivity when driving: Off; insensitive; normal; sensitive. Normal picks up every single bump. I keep at insensitive.
* Parking Mode: Off (stops recording); Record for Shock only; Record for Shock or motion.

* Motion sensitivity when parking: Insensitive; normal; sensitive.
* Shock alarm: On or Off. Camera beeps when it senses a shock.
* File delete method: By time or by file type. Overwrites oldest file first, or lets you set percentage of each type of file to keep.
* Time Zone: For the date/time overlay on recordings.
List of configurable options for the SOFTWARE:
* Speed toggle: Kilometers/hour (KPH) or Miles/hour (MPH)
* Brightness
* Contrast
* Night mode: On or off. Same thing as brightness control, just simpler.
* Rotate recording
* Capture image. Saves current frame as image.
* Play Speed: 0.4x; 0.6x; 0.8x; 1x; 2x
* Volume
Parking mode details:
Parking mode is supposed to be a low-power mode that is activated after the camera is stationary for 5 minutes. Of course, this will only matter if you keep the camera plugged in and if your car provides power when off. The camera stays on the entire time, it just doesn't write the video to the card unless it detects shock or motion, which I assume uses less power. Yes, this could drain your battery anyways, but the camera uses such little power this is not likely unless you rarely/never drive the car.
Note on motion: The manual doesn't clarify this at all, so I had to test for myself. The camera actually does "see" motion - not just "feel" it. In other words, if motion is turned on for parking mode it will record someone walking in front of your car/camera, not just pushing on the car.
Other notes:
* You need a windows computer to install the software, change settings, or view GPS data. However, raw video is stored as standard AVI files, so you will still be able to view video with any computer.
* This camera has no night vision whatsoever. There needs to be some source of relatively bright light to see anything clearly.
* I forgot to measure the length of the 12v adapter cord before installing, but I was able to route the cord all the way around my windshield, out and around the dashboard, and to the middle outlet with about a foot to spare. It may have been 10-12ft long.
* The camera saves a video file to the card every 1-2 minutes OR when power is disconnected.
* Camera takes about 30 seconds after power is applied to begin recording, and averages about 1-2 minutes to obtain a GPS signal.
* To reiterate, if speed overlay is enabled, you will only see KPH in the video. MPH is only viewable in the software.
*Update: There is an English version software update available that works for me on Windows 8 x64, so I assume it should work on Windows 7 as well. It is located on the original manufacturer's "mall" site, which is totally in Korean.
