• The RC09 records in 1080p Full HD resolution, capturing clear video footage from the rear of your vehicle.
• Recordings are automatically saved to the memory card inserted in your A400 Dash Cam.
• The 140-degree wide-angle lens minimizes blind spots, providing extensive coverage.

4.3 Parking Surveillance Mode

For continuous monitoring when your vehicle is parked, the RC09 can contribute to the parking surveillance mode of your A400 Dash Cam.
