FPS indicates the number of individual frames or images that a camera captures per second. Higher FPS, such as 60fps, leads to video footage that is smoother and more lifelike. When a fast-moving object is captured at a high frame rate, the resulting footage provides a clearer image of the object, eliminating the blur or 'ghosting' effect that can occur at lower FPS.
When driving, many critical incidents happen within a fraction of a second. With a high FPS, your dash cam will have a better chance of capturing these moments in detail. For example, it could be the difference between clearly identifying another vehicle's license plate number in a hit-and-run incident or not.
In addition, high FPS footage is more effective for slow-motion playback. If you need to review a split-second event such as a car accident, you can slow down the high FPS footage and get a clear, step-by-step understanding of the event. It's almost like having the ability to zoom into time, which can be crucial in understanding the exact sequence of events in a rapid incident or accident. Whether it's identifying a sudden lane change or the point of impact in a collision, high FPS footage ensures you don't miss any critical details, no matter how quickly they occur.
This is especially beneficial with MASIGO dash cam models A330, A330D, which support a high frame rate of 60fps at 2.5K/1080P, offering superior detail and smoothness in their video capture.
