With a 2.7" wide full-colour LCD screen, you can review the high-quality footage without losing any resolution. The GPS location, date & time and the built-in 3-axis G-Sensor can detect unusual impacts to your vehicle and automatically stores this information with the video footage. The DRV-A301W features a wide-viewing lens with a horizontal angle of 115°, a vertical angle of 61°, and a diagonal angle of 136°. The recording range at the front of the car expands in all directions to ensure nothing escapes the shot.
When installed, the hardwire kit adds Smart Parking Mode. Then, when your car is parked with the ignition turned off, the Smart Parking Mode becomes active, shutting down everything except the G-Sensor to save power. Suppose your vehicle is subjected to a physical impact. Your dashcam stores the footage leading up to and after the incident. If the G-sensor detects other impacts during this recording, it will extend the recording time by 30 seconds until there are no more vibrations. The dashcam will then return to sleep mode (Smart Parking Mode).
NOTE: After installation please ensure you start your engine. Otherwise, your dashcam may remain in sleep mode (smart parking), due to battery conditions.

This bundle represents excellent value for money. All works as expected for a HD camera in this price range. What is of particular value to me, is the excellent customer service from Kenwood. They answered questions quickly at all times. I feel well supported by Kenwood.

United KingdomExcellent Dashcam for the money
I purchased this dashcam to compliment two other older Kenwood dashcams I have. The technology has moved on quite a bit and the quality this new camera can produce is way better than I expected! And the cost is not exorbitant! Glad I plumped for this dashcam
