In-Depth Review of the JOMISE K7 1600P Dash Cam

如果您遇到车祸，您的保险公司通常会依靠警察报告来决定您的索赔。根据您的保险，可能不会覆盖您的车辆因故意造成的损坏而被覆盖。如果警察确定您有事故过错，则可能会影响您未来的费率。毕竟，保险公司为有造成事故的历史的人收取更多费用。

One way to avoid being found at fault is to have a video record of any crashes. This can help tremendously if it’s a matter of your word versus the other driver’s. It’s also helpful in the event that you encounter an insurance scammer. Many scammers will work with an accomplice, who acts as a phony witness for them. Suddenly, it can be your word against not just the other driver’s, but a supposedly-impartial witness. Without dashcam evidence, you can end up being found at fault for an accident you didn’t cause.

今天，我们将审查Jomise K7 Dash Cam。这是一个紧凑，易于安装的破折号凸轮，可直接安装在您的挡风玻璃上。对于那些对电子产品不了解的人来说，这是相当简单的。但是，仅仅因为它小而简单并不意味着它不值得。实际上，对于许多人来说，小而简单就是您想要的。我们将深入研究K7的所有功能，缺陷和强调。一旦我们给了一次彻底的一次，我们就会知道我们需要知道的一切以做出判决。

总体设计

TheJomise K7Dash Cam（折扣代码30％折扣：8HN286QR）is an ultra-compact dashcam that measures less than two inches to a side. At only three inches long, it’s also exceptionally short. This compact size has two major advantages. First, it won’t block your view easily, regardless of where the camera is positioned. Second, it can fit in places other cameras can’t. For instance, it can fit behind the rearview mirror on many cars. That’s an option you don’t get with a lot of dashcams!

房地产是黑色ABS塑料,装饰grey striping on the sides. The back of the camera sports a 2-inch touchscreen display, which lets you control most functions. You can review video, select videos to save, and delete unwanted videos. When you’re not doing anything, the screen can also be programmed with a custom screensaver. This is basically a slideshow of any pictures you want to store on the camera. To be honest, it’s a bit baffling why anyone would want a distracting slideshow playing while they drive. But if you spend a ton of time idling in traffic, you’ll have pictures of grandma to keep you company.

camera unit is mounted on a vertical bracket, which attaches to a 360-degree swivel mount. This means you can easily aim the camera in any direction you want. Just grab it and tilt it however you need to. The bracket also supplies power to the camera, and there’s a USB Mini-B port in the back of the mount. There’s a cable included in the kit, along with a 12-volt DC USB power adapter. Along with some adhesive pads, that’s everything you need to get started.

One thing the K7 doesn’t have is a backup camera. It could conceivably be pointed backwards, but that’s not the same thing. If you need a backup camera for parking or security, check out theBoscam K7 Pro。It will do what you’re looking for, but the display takes up a considerable amount of space.

Installation

安装K7 Dash Cam非常容易，尤其是与大多数其他仪表板凸轮相比。最困难的部分是为粘合剂做准备，粘合剂涉及彻底清洁挡风玻璃的部分。等待一分钟让清洁剂干燥，然后将仪表板放置。您不必担心它目前的指向，只要它朝着正确的方向朝着正确的方向。请记住，您稍后可以旋转相机！关键是要确保您确切地知道相机的位置。完成此操作后，请按照说明应用粘合剂并固定相机。

Once that’s done, you need to plug the K7 on and calibrate it. You can run the wire around your windshield trim if you want better concealment. That said, there’s no reason you can’t leave it dangling if you want to. Either way, power up the camera, and follow the instructions. You’ll need to install the HiDashcam app on your phone and calibrate it. This is so the camera knows where to look for vehicles in front of you, stop lights, and other objects. Without calibration, the smart features won’t work! The app can also be used to operate the camera, but is not required. If you’d rather delete it after calibration, you can do everything you need from the K7’s on-board controls.

该摄像机如此易于设置和安装的主要原因是没有后置摄像头。如果您需要后置摄像头和正面，请考虑Jomise D530。It has two cameras, so you can record in both directions simultaneously. That said, wiring the rear camera can be challenging for a novice; you’ll want to hire a mechanic.

Video Quality and Storage

Jomise K7可以通过两种不同的分辨率记录。您可以在30 fps下选择2,560 x 1,600像素（4K），也可以在60 fps下选择1,920 x 1,080像素（1080p）。两者都有自己的优点和缺点。4K分辨率使您可以看到更明显的细节，这通常更好。也就是说，较慢的帧速率意味着您更有可能看到运动模糊。因此，在较高的速度下，在30 fps的4K实际上比1080p在60 fps时不那么理想。另一方面，更高的分辨率和较低的帧速率是城市驾驶的更好选择。

camera has a wide angle, 170-degree lens, which is almost fisheye but not quite. You can’t literally see your side view mirrors or the side of your windshield. That said, you’ll be able to see all three lanes starting from well behind your front bumper. This is ideal coverage for getting footage during an accident.

Nighttime performance is what you’d expect from a dash cam, not a security camera. The K7 has a wide aperture that gathers plenty of light, along with Sony STARVIS sensors. This means you get excellent clarity and true color even in very low light. However, in total darkness, you still see nothing. Considering the fact that you’ll be using headlights at night, this isn’t really a major concern for most people.

If you do need night vision — for instance, for an overnight parking camera — there are options. TheLanmodo Vast Prois an excellent choice. It offers gorgeous night vision as well as top-tier daytime performance, but it’s more expensive than most dash cams.

存储,你会得到一个微型SD插槽。camera supports SD cards with 32, 64, or 128GB capacities, which is standard for a dash cam. You’ll want to format your card in the camera before use. If you use a 128GB card, you’ll have about two days’ worth of storage. When the card fills up, you don’t have to worry about manually clearing it. The on-board software uses loop recording, so the oldest footage will be automatically overwritten.

Extra Features

In addition to the basic features we’ve already discussed, you get a few extra bonus features. First off, the app will allow you to download videos to your phone directly from the camera. As long as you’re in Bluetooth range, you’ll never have to worry about swapping out an SD card. The app is lightweight and easy to install as well as free, so there’s little reason not to use it.

K7具有内置的GPS传感器，可跟踪您的汽车位置。它还跟踪时间，日期和您当前的旅行速度。所有这些信息都嵌入了每个视频中，从而提供了更好的证据。如果发生崩溃，加速度计将检测到产生影响。当时，视频的那部分将立即锁定并保存在一个特殊的文件夹中。如果需要，可以手动删除此文件夹。但是，该文件夹中的视频将永远不会被循环录制删除。这样，只要您需要您的保险索赔，它们就会出现。

加速度计还可以触发相机以记录关闭汽车时。在此模式下，您可以将K7用作停车摄像头。但是请记住，这将需要一个hardwiring kit，分别出售。它还使相机更难安装，从而否定了其主要好处之一。

In addition to all of this, the K7 also provides smart reminders. It monitors traffic lights, and beeps when a red light turns green. It also monitors the car in front of you when you’re sitting in bumper-to-bumper traffic. When they move ahead, the camera will beep. The sensors are very effective, and work with near-perfect accuracy. That said, the constant beeping can get annoying. If you don’t like the smart reminders, they can be toggled on and off in the camera’s menu.

最终判决

TheJomise K7Dash Cam（折扣代码30％折扣：8HN286QR）is one of the more impressive small dash cams on today’s market. At only two inches on the diagonal, it can be tucked away in any corner of your windshield. It takes only minutes to install, and comes with an excellent free app. The video quality is also far beyond what you’d expect for the size. Whether you want 4K video at 30 FPS or 1080p video at 60 FPS, you’ll enjoy a crisp, clear picture. The smart reminders are a nice added touch as well.
