Vicovation OPIA 2
7 reviews
Unreliable twice – I have used dash cams for the last 6 years, but the original cameras were at the end of their life cycle. I did my research and decided on the Vicovation Opia 2 as they had a very high resolution rate, had a quick release mounting bracket that also allowed the use of a circular polarising filter to cut glare. I ordered online and recieved the… Read more
camera within a day. I installed it, very easy to do and it ran fine for a week. Then it just died, no power at all. Tested the charger and it was fine, problem was a dead camera. Sent it back and recieved a second camera. This ran for a month then suddenly would not read the micro SD card. Assumed it was a faulty card and bought another. No, it was another faulty camera. Sent this one back and got a full refund. For the price, I expected much better. The supplier was fantastic and helpful, but I cannot reccomend these cameras. Have since bought another brand and have had no issues.
Very very impressed with OPIA 2 – I strongly agree with the other 5 star reviews this is a high quality dashcamera. I knew it was high quality as soon as the box arrived. I wanted a dashcamera that I could set & forget and this is perfect. I just let it do its thing. I looked at fancy ones with wifi and other features but I didn't want to muck around between my iPhone and the… Read more
camera. OPIA 2 was extremely easy to setup and I like having a screen on the camera because it gives me mental reassurance that it is on and working. The video footage is ultra clear you can see number plates from far away. The night time footage is really clear too and I read this is a problem with other cameras. I had difficulty at first using the parking security mode but now that I know how to use it it works great even in my dark carpark at work. Price is premium but so is the camera. I have piece of mind with this camera in my car. I would highly recommend this camera to people looking for a fuss free dashcam with really high quality footage.
Vicovation OPIA 2 - BEST OF THE BEST – Recently upgraded to the Vicovation OPIA 2. Vico have raised the bar on this one. 2k 1440P resolution is crystal clear, picks up the finest details. Heat tolerance is rated to 75'C. Highest heat resistance on the market and great for summer and northern state climates. Night time footage is ultra crisp and recording angle is ultra wide at 160 degrees, picks up wider area of both left & right lanes. Highly recommended, top shelf dashcam.
Fantastic Dash Cam – After a great deal of research (capability, functionality, ease of use, and quality of files etc) into the variety of dash cams available on the market today settled on the Vicovation Opia 2. This unit is outstanding in all areas from practicality, build, design and above all easy install. The team at Dashcams Australia are outstanding and I… Read more
highly recommend if anyone is looking to purchase a dashcam don't go past the Vicovation Opia 2, you will not be disappointed.
A great little dash cam with BIG features! – This crash cam is the a great investment. It is very small in size. It looks much bigger in the product pictures. It is about the size of a tic-tac box. The clarity both day and night, is second to none. I have not had a chance to install the power pack yet but from what I have seen the parking mode looks top notch too. Very happy with the purchase and service I received.
Best Dash Cam Ever!! – Love this DashCam. Excellent video in low light. Not the cheapest in the market, but those who value better outcomes for a few extra bucks.. this product might be for you. super wide angle without the distortion, amazingly clear and bright at night time. I purchased this from DashCamAustralia, their service and delivery was exceptional.
Vicovation OPIA 2 Dash Cam review – Just recently upgraded my Vico WF1 to the Vico Opia 2 model. The clarity is amazing especially on my MAC retina display when viewing at 1440p. Vico really know how to make cameras. I also have an el-cheapo bought off ebay for the rear that has been replaced 3 times and you can definitely tell the difference in quality. Since I purchase my first… Read more
camera I have learnt that the most important things are:
1. A good wide angle lens so you can capture more in the image like when someone cuts in front of you
2. A super capacitor (not a battery) because the cameras are in the sun for hours every day and a battery fails over time. A Capacitor has a much higher heat tolerance.
3. The clarity is the most important. You need something that can process the images fast so you can pick up license plates even while you are driving. This camera does it perfectly.
4. Good night time vision to capture the hoodlems that come out at night. This camera has the best night vision I have seen on a camera.
The bonus's are the new parking mode feature and the high memory capacity however I have not utilised these. I have a 32GB samsung card and just plugged into the ciggie lighter.
All in all, another great quality product.
