Anyone use Drift 4K camera ?

Good question.

I'm setting up front and rear cameras at 1080p 60 frames per second for accident/incident recordings.

I have used the Innovv K1 on the RT for just this. Fit and forget, very small and does most of what you are talking about. And does not cost the earth.

The Tom Tom automatically throws a video together for you based on the gyro sensors and g force's both accelerating and braking and cornering etc full gps so you know where the video was taken, better to buy the the professional version as it comes with all the bits like remote,mounting brackets etc

Any examples of the 'auto-created' vid? When I tour, I never take toll routes or motorways if they are avoidable (as a side note, I vehemently object to any Guided Motorbike Tour-type companies which happily bring you on 100+ miles of péage). Many of my rides through Europe are often 50-100 mile stretches of pure twisties, so would TomTom record the entire lot as a video of interest?

Looks like a good system.

My only observations are that it isn't waterproof so may be problematic in heavy rain.

No obvious indication that its actually recording or not, as the whole system is out of riders view. If it stops recording for some reason mid ride, how would you know? Some systems are temperamental at low temperatures (freezing).

No obvious way of connecting a helmet bluetooth microphone so you can't overlay voice commentary (or at least have high quality windproof sound quality to accompany footage (which can be important).

Doesn't seem to have its own battery system? To run independantly from the motorcycle? Say for 10 minutes after the bike is parked and turned off.

Doesn't have data telemetry overlay option on video footage. Like speed, revs, gear indicator, GPS position, altitude, lean angle, throttle position, front brake, rear brake, engine temp, tyre pressures, heart rate haha or any combination suitable for the footage being taken.

Just observations thats all, as sometimes you don't realise how important these things are until after the investment.

Sometimes video footage is just a small part of the story. Sound and Data is just as important.

Note: K1 Review: I read online one thing that should be pointed out is that the cameras are unshielded and bleed interference.

The cameras and camera leads really need to be shielded when being used on bikes with any GPS equipment.
