The BlackVue Elite 8 1CH dashcam is a 2K Front Camera. 

More about ELITE 8-1CH 

2K Front with Sony Starvis 2 Image Sensor

The front camera records at 30 frames per second in 2K, 5-megapixel pixel resolution with Sony IMX675 STARVIS 2 image sensor for an optimal mix of resolution and low-light sensitivity.  

HDR support on the front camera

HDR (High Dynamic Range) reduces motion blur and improves detail, making license plates easier to read on moving vehicles.

Ultra Low-Light Boost 

Elite 8 boosts sensitivity in very dark environments, so you get usable footage even where the eye can barely see, down to under 0.03 Lux.

Parking Mode - 3 Surveillance Modes 

Please note the camera will need to be installed using the included hardwire cable to connect to your vehicles fuse box or dashcam battery pack to provide a power source for parking recording. 

1. Motion Detection Mode: records a 1-minute buffered video whenever a motion is detected by the front or rear camera. Motion detection areas can be set manually in the app.

2. Time Lapse Mode: records constantly at 1 frame per second so each 1 minute video covers 30 minutes of real time. Recommended if you routinely park in busy areas.

Pre-impact recording: in both modes, the dashcam also records buffered Event clips in case of impact. That means 1-minute clips that start 10 seconds before the detected impact.

3. In Power Saving Mode, the dashcam minimizes power consumption by going into standby, then wakes up on impact and goes back to standby mode after 1 min recording.

• Ultra-Low Current Draw: Under 1 mA! Less than a dash cam’s standard mode draw
• Ultra-Fast Wakeup Time: Under 1 second! Starts recording as soon as an impact is detected.
