The 65W’s mount is a clever design, consisting of a small magnetic disc that sticks to the windshield, a magnet on the bottom of the mount arm that attaches to it, and a ball joint in the camera itself where the other end of the mount arm mates. It’s very stable and adjustable, but doesn’t do much in the way of shock absorption. The 65W uses a very clever magnetic mount and a ball socket on the camera. Speaking of which, the 65W ships with an 8GB SD flash memory card, so you can get going right out of the box. But once you figure in dash cam-grade optics and compression, you generally wind up with the same amount of detail as with 1080p/30 fps-but considerably larger files. There are cameras (including Garmin’s own Dash Cam 55) that support 1440p or greater, and some that capture 60-fps video. That’s about the maximum size and frame rate we recommend for a normal dash cam use.

One of my favorites.Īs I mentioned up front, the 65W offers a super-wide 180-degree field of view, and takes 1080p video at 30 frames per second. The USB port is oriented so that the power cable (auxiliary/cigarette lighter to micro-USB) points up to the ceiling. The only major features breaking up the rectangle are the micro USB port on the left side, and the SD card slot and heat vent on the bottom. The back of the camera is given over almost entirely to a nice 2-inch display, while you control the unit and browse menus with four buttons on the right side of the unit. It captures a wider field of vision, but induces some fish-eye effect. The 65W’s distinguishing feature is its super wide 180 degree lens.
