Professional car camera with 4K recording and parking detection
This is one of BlackVue's top cameras. It records in Ultra HD and will automatically start recording in a parking lot if something hits your car.
Records in high quality
The front-mounted camera records in Ultra HD (4K). The front camera features a built-in Sony STARVIS 2 image sensor, developed specifically for surveillance and car cameras. The technology lets the camera see well even in poor lighting.
- 4K Ultra HD front (8.4 MP)
- Front camera: Sony STARVIS 2 image sensor
Built-in GPS and Wi‑Fi
The camera has built-in GPS and Wi‑Fi, making it easier to access your recordings.
The Wi‑Fi connection is used to access the camera wirelessly from an app on your phone or via a computer. From there you can view live footage, download videos, or change settings without removing the SD card from the camera.
The built-in GPS logs your route and speed so you can easily see where an event occurred.
Parking monitoring
The camera can monitor the car while it's parked. If motion or impact is detected, it will start recording automatically.
This happens either via the vehicle's ignition signal (ACC) or using the built-in G-sensor—depending on how the camera is connected.
A hardwire cable is included so you can use parking mode without buying extra accessories. If activity is detected around the car while it's off, you'll get a voice alert when you start the car again.
Easy to operate
The camera has a touch sensor that makes it easy to start a manual recording if you see something you want to save quickly. There's also a dedicated button to format the SD card directly on the unit.
You’ll be warned if it stops recording
The system has built-in monitoring of the SD card and will alert you if errors occur. It can also restart itself automatically at intervals to keep running stably. Important recordings are protected from being overwritten.
Power and connections
The camera is connected via three wires: GND (ground), B+ (constant power) and ACC (ignition). It supports both 12V and 24V, so it can be used in both cars and vans.
Power consumption is approx. 480mA during normal driving and 370mA in parking mode.
Built-in Cloud
With BlackVue Cloud you can access the camera live, get notifications about events and view video recordings directly on your phone. This feature requires you to purchase and connect a separate LTE module.
App and software
You can use the BlackVue app for both Android and iOS to view live, download recordings and change settings. It can also be done from either a PC or a Mac.
The software supports both Chrome and Safari.
