Optimal Image Correction System
You will encounter diverse conditions during your drive that may affect the quality of your recording such as direct headlight beams from an opposite vehicle, rapid change in light exposure going in and out of tunnels, weather changes and driving at night. The X550 has various image correction processes such as WDR, Super Night Vision, Smart AE and other functions that optimize image quality, ensuring clear and accurate footage under all circumstances.

WDR (Wide Dynamic Range)
When your vehicle is under direct sunlight, exiting from a tunnel or overshadowed by high-rises etc., recorded videos can appear too dark or bright due to a sudden change in the level of light exposure. X550's WDR removes excessively bright spots from recorded videos and adjust their overall color balance to produce clearer images. The WDR can cause degradation in clarity while correcting the exposure. Please make sure to set it properly before use.

Super Night Vision (Nighttime Picture Quality Correction)
When recording with a Dash Cam in low light environments such as dark alleyways or underground parking lots, it can be difficult to accurately make out the images. X550 has the Super Night Vision as a default function, which removes static noise and adjusts brightness as well as colors at the sensor.

Smart AE (Automatic Exposure)
In moments when you are exposed to direct beams of light, it may be difficult to identify crucial aspects of your view such as a license plate or the color of the opposing vehicle. The X550's Smart AE always ensures ideal exposure and superb image quality in any lighting conditions. This enables you to identify what you encountered from your recorded videos.

Mounted 2.7 Inch Clear Display

The 2.7 inch clear display allows you to perform these tasks in your car without having to connect to a PC, MAC or smart device.
