Hmmmm, only to be expected!
I am sorry but advertising a product with a unique and valuable USP (PGPSW data) and then not supporting or providing updates for it as advertised and stated on their we ... |

Blimey, just gt an email to say this thread was updated - long gaps!
I have not even bothered checking for speed-cam or firmware updates for more than a year or so - just too many broken promises f ... |

The power of the forum!
That's good if they are sending a replacement - please keep us posted whether that cures the problem or you need to wait for the new firmware.
It might be as well to chec ... |

That is a terrible sequence of events but glad it got resolved - except for the other driver not getting brought to justice!
I agree that any camera is better than none and in fact I am now using o ... |

Thanks for the tips.
Yes, the RAC05 does have HDR - the only proviso is that it will only work upto Full HD quality - which is actually fine with me because I don't see the point of using the highe ... |

Not really.
The speed camera updates are only when they get around to it - a long way from their quoted every 2 weeks. It warns me of non-existent cameras in local locations that I know have never ... |

I'm really torn.
This is the only one that uses the PGPSW database, but the reviews are awful!
I don't want to waste my money :-/
Yes, that was the main attraction for me as well when I bought it ... |

Just an update - I have a replacement camera on it's way to me, thank you Natasha, and I have every confidence that will cure the intermittent fault I am experiencing.
We will hopefully get some ne ... |

Oh well, my camera is still faulty and proofcam are no longer responding to my emails.
If that is the level of customer service you require then buy one, if not then maybe look elsewhere? |

No, can't say I have had that one yet - hope you sort it, could be the SD as you suggest.
Mine still randomly powers itself off just after it has "auto" started quite often, even with the new cab ... |

Thanks for your thoughts.
Yes, I assumed the high setting referred to "high sensitivity" which is what mine is set to and it has never automatically locked a file as an event - only when I physical ... |

I did say that I agreed with you that it should work as advertised and it's silly having to press the 'emergency' button twice, but I fail to see your arguments for not just removing the SD card 'when ... |

Maybe a RTFM ?
Overview of controls shows that button 8 locks the recorded video file.
Plus the G-Sensor has 4 settings.
