Hi folks, I’m looking for advice/recommendations for a camera to serve the same functions as a dash cam, just in case

today a speeding car overtook six of us on a blind bend into the path of an oncoming bus, his wing mirror clipped the lead rider (no injuries fortunately) and the bus nearly ended up in the ditch, it all happened so quickly that none of us had a chance to get his number.

 

I know there’s a lot of cameras out there but I don’t know one from another and as I don’t have a computer, only an iPad it may limit my choices.

 

Thanks in advance, any advice welcomed

The one in SW’s link has only bad reviews, can anyone recommend one they have owned that works with iso WiFi

both of mine work on wifi my 4k one is a copy of a eken camera and comes with a remote.

 

the app is ez icam

 

tho what i really want is a 4k 120fps cam like the old cube go pros with a removable battery.

There are lots of cheap GoPro type cameras on Amazon.

I recently bought one for about £40 to mount on my bike and the video quality is very good.

 

As you need to view on an iPad you could simply get a Lightning to SD Card reader. I did that some time ago and it worked ok.
