Your Eyewitness That Never Blinks

These compact cameras stay out of sight, but they never lose sight of what happens on the road. Just plug them in, and you can hit the road knowing that these cameras are capturing high-quality video. Automatic Incident Detection (G-sensor) saves video footage upon impact, and the cameras are GPS-enabled, so all footage is stamped with location, time, date and speed. You’ll know exactly what happened and have proof.

These trusty dash cameras not only act as your eyewitnesses as you drive, but they also provide advanced driver alerts — such as forward collision and lane departure warnings¹ — to encourage safer driving.

Records High-quality 1080p HD Video

The Garmin™ Dash Cam 65W is an easy-to-use high-definition and super-wide-angle driving recorder with 2.0” LCD display. With an outstanding field of view, it captures the entire road and includes GPS for detailed time and location data, pinpointing exactly where and when events happened. Rely on your Dash Cam 65W to capture excellent video detail in both bright and low-light conditions. Mount the camera to your windshield, and record your drive in 1440p. Dash Cam records in a continuous loop, using the included replaceable microSD card. To add more memory, add a larger microSD card (accepts up to 64 GB, sold separately; Class 10 required). Play back the footage right on the display or review later on your computer.

No need to worry about starting and stopping. If the Dash Cam 65W is plugged into a powered source, it starts recording automatically and saves footage in case of incidents.

The Dash Cam 65W features automatic Incident Detection (G-Sensor) so when an incident is detected, your camera knows to save the current, last and next recordings, thereby preserving a complete record of the event. And all this information is saved to the included Class 10 replaceable microSD memory card.

For a close-up view of vehicle or property damage, you can remove the Dash Cam 65W from your vehicle and take video and/or snapshots.

The bottom line

The Dash Cam 65W from Garmin is a great choice for super-wide-angle video quality and excellent brand reliability. Physically, it's one of the smallest dashcams out there (despite the fact that the 65W still manages to include a screen on the back), and from a name like Garmin, you know you're in good hands. For the basic non-wide-angle version of this dashcam, please see the Garmin Dash Cam 45, or for the super-HD resolution and voice-controlled version, please see the Garmin Dash Cam 55.
