Can I add a rear camera later?
No. The F70 Pro is a front-only camera and has no rear-camera connection. Choose a compatible multi-channel system such as the Q200 front-and-rear kit if rear coverage matters.
Does it use a Sony STARVIS 2 sensor?
Thinkware specifies a 2.1MP CMOS sensor for the F70 Pro, not a Sony STARVIS 2 sensor. It records Full HD 1080p at 30FPS.
Does Super Night Vision work while driving?
On the F70 Pro, Super Night Vision is a parking-mode feature. It improves low-light brightness while parked; it is not Super Night Vision 4.0 and does not guarantee readable plates in every scene.
What do I need for parking mode?
A compatible hardwire or OBD power connection that supplies parking power and the appropriate vehicle-state signal. The included cigarette-lighter cable is intended for normal driving use. Enable the desired parking mode and battery protection in the app.
Do all parking modes record before an impact?
No. Motion Detection provides a 10-second pre-event buffer. Time Lapse records an accelerated view at 2FPS. Energy Saving begins its event recording after impact detection, so it does not show the lead-up.
What happens if the camera gets hot?
Smart Parking Recording can reduce parking operation to impact-only recording. A separate thermal protection function can shut the camera down at extreme temperatures. Its specified operating range is −10°C to 60°C; it is not guaranteed to keep recording in all heat conditions.
Can I see the camera remotely through Wi-Fi?
No. The F70 Pro’s Wi-Fi is for a nearby phone connection to the camera. It does not include cellular service or remote Cloud access.
Do I need my phone connected while driving?
No. After setup, the powered camera records to its microSD card without a continuous phone connection. Connect locally when you need to review files or change settings.
What is Bluetooth used for?
Bluetooth assists pairing with Thinkware Dash Cam Link. The camera’s local Wi-Fi connection is used for live view, file access and downloads.
Is GPS included?
No. The external GPS antenna is optional. It enables location and speed data plus supported safety-camera alerts; it does not add remote tracking.
What memory card is included and what is the limit?
The listed package includes a 32GB microSD card with adapter. Supported capacities are 16, 32, 64 and 128GB. Use a compatible card and copy important recordings elsewhere before formatting or changing recording settings.
Can it record without vehicle power?
No. The internal supercapacitor supports safe shutdown; it is not a rechargeable battery for ongoing recording. Driving and parking recording both need an external power source.
How do I save a clip manually?
Briefly press REC to save a one-minute clip: 10 seconds before the button press and 50 seconds after it. Download important footage promptly so it remains available.
What warranty applies?
The new F70 Pro includes a one-year manufacturer warranty.
What else should I check before ordering?
Hardwiring cable, OBD power cable, external GPS antenna and CPL filter are optional and sold separately.
