The Viofo A119 has been updated and released as this superb V3 version of the A119. It boasts impressive features such as a Sony Starvis night vision sensor and automatic parking mode. Furthermore, it remains just as easy to use, and the A119 V3 also comes with a GPS module.
Sony Starvis IMX335 5MP sensor
The Viofo A119 V3 records highly detailed videos thanks to the Sony Starvis IMX335 image sensor. This ensures that recordings are of very high quality, particularly at night. The camera records at 2560×1600 30fps but can also be set to lower resolutions, such as 1920×1080p 60fps. The lens is a 7G f/1.8 aperture lens.
Automatic buffered parking mode
The Viofo A119 V3 is equipped with an automatic buffered parking mode, motion detection or Time Lapse. When motion is detected, the camera goes into standby mode and, thanks to the buffering, starts recording 15 seconds before and 30 seconds after motion is detected. In Time Lapse mode, the camera continuously records a 1fps video which can later be played back (in fast-forward) as a 30fps video. This ensures that evidence is always available if the car is damaged whilst parked.
The automatic parking mode only works if the dashcam is used with the Viofo Hardwire Kit 3-wire or the OP100 OBD-II Mini USB power supply (optional accessory). When connected, the camera will automatically switch to parking mode when the car’s ignition is switched off and revert to normal recording when the car is started.
Includes GPS
The Viofo A119 V3 comes with a mount featuring a built-in GPS module. The GPS allows the current speed to be displayed on the screen. This can be crucial as evidence in the event of an incident. Furthermore, the GPS records the locations where footage was captured by the dashcam. This allows the route travelled to be viewed via the software on a PC.
Optional CPL filter
The optional CPL filter guarantees optimal protection and image quality in sunny conditions. The CPL filter acts for the dashcam like a pair of polarised sunglasses for the eyes. Harmful UV radiation is filtered out and annoying reflections are eliminated. This improves the image quality and durability of the camera.
Supercapacitor battery
The Viofo A119 V3 is equipped with a supercapacitor battery. This battery ensures that the camera can shut down correctly after a power failure. Supercapacitor batteries have been specially developed for use in dashcams because they are more durable than standard polymer Li-ion batteries and are also more resistant to high and low temperatures.
Compact design
The Viofo A119 V3 is a very sleek and compactly designed dashcam. It fits easily behind the rear-view mirror in the car. As it is barely noticeable, it does not distract the driver and also significantly reduces the risk of theft.
2.0-inch LCD screen
This Viofo A119 V3 dashcam features a 2.0-inch LCD screen. The screen displays live footage and allows for easy menu navigation. The built-in screensaver automatically switches off the LCD screen after a set number of minutes, if desired, so that it does not distract the driver.
Sticker mounting
The Viofo A119 V3 has a mount that is attached to the windscreen using a sticker. The dashcam can be easily removed from this mount. Thanks to the secure mounting, the dashcam cannot fall off the windscreen and there is also less vibration in the image.
1.8 aperture 6G lens
The 1.8 aperture and 6G lens capture a lot of light, ensuring excellent image quality both during the day and in the dark.
HDR
Thanks to HDR (High Dynamic Range) technology, the camera is capable of producing sharp images in both very high and very low light conditions. This means the camera captures razor-sharp images both during the day in bright light and at night in low light.
WDR
The Viofo A119 V3 is equipped with WDR (Wide Dynamic Range) hardware. This allows the dashcam to automatically adjust the light intensity depending on the environment. The WDR therefore guarantees the best image quality under varying conditions.
Auto start
The Viofo A119 V3 dashcam starts recording automatically when the car is started. So you no longer need to worry about it once it’s mounted in the car. However, this requires it to be connected to the car’s power supply.
G-sensor
Thanks to the built-in G-sensor, the Viofo A119 V3 dashcam detects when you have been involved in an accident. Upon impact, footage is automatically secured so that it cannot be lost. It cannot be overwritten or deleted via the dashcam.
AV output
Via the AV output, the dashcam’s footage can be displayed on an external monitor, such as the car’s built-in navigation system. An AV cable is required to transfer the footage.
Built-in microphone
The built-in microphone in this dashcam also records sound inside and around the car. The microphone can be switched off if desired.
256GB support
The Viofo A119 V3 supports MicroSD cards up to 256GB. This is enough for around 50 hours of Full HD video.
