What does it mean "license plate stamp"? Does camera capture the numbers, highlight them or what? THank you in advance!

Not sure where you saw "stamp", but the license plate designation means this camera has high enough definition to read license plate numbers when playing back the recording. Basically letting you know this is true 1080 HD. Cheaper cameras that take a low definition recording and upconvert them to be 1080 are impossible to read the license plate numbers.

The camera has an option to program your car's license plate # into it, and have that display as an 'overlay' on the recorded video. Not sure what benefit that provides, but it can be setup that way if you so please.

The camera has an option to input an identifier that will be shown on the recorded video. You can put your name, license number, driver name/number etc. The purpose is, if you are running a fleet of vehicles/drivers, you can use this stamp to identify from what vehicle/driver the video came.

I don't know what that means but would like to help you out. Can you explain that more. I can take a picture and send it to you if that helps

Probably not, the reason this is called a license plate camera is the dynamic gain control that effectively digitally blocks the light from headlights to prevent the picture from being washed out. The picture quality on these is not bad, but it's not top of the line. But you're also not paying top dollar either.

Al - You can select whether the stamp is on or off. It will stay in that mode until changed, turned on or off. It is a very nice camera considering it was built just before the HD cameras came out. The hard drive storage is really nice, tons of storage space and easy to transfer to your PC or laptop.

The version that I purchased about 4 years ago now does not. However, since it is located on your license plate frame location, it shows your rear bumper so you can judge. If your vehicle is an suv or van where plate location is further than 12 inches from the rear bumper, you might want to try and attach the camera to the bottom holes of your license plate, depending on your needs. I hope this helps!

I mounted mine to the license plate on my SUV. I put a piece of metal behind the plate and drilled holes through it where the license plate mounts. They I drilled a hole through the center with the license plate bolted to the metal to hold in place temporarily. I then mounted the camera through the center hole I drilled and took off the bolts holding the metal to the license plate and then mounted them where they normally go. It worked great. The only problem I had was picking up road spray sometimes. It was a good place for me to watch my hitch connection for hooking up.

The two pictures are of the same frame. The second one shows the frame with a piece of cardboard sitting exactly where your license plate will sit. The frame goes on to your car first and then the license plate goes on top of it, so that the four tabs that you see in the first picture are behind the license plate when it's mounted.

Currently own 5 of these cameras. Daytime image quality is amazing, nightime image quality is very good. To read a license plate - I would say you could probably read one on a stopped vehicle at 50' They will not let you read one on a moving vehicle.

The camera are of medium quality (in my opinion). If you want a really sharp image that can read a license plate then purchase better cameras. I originally purchased an 8 port DVR with four cameras then added these four. Good system even at night. I am pleased with it for my home security so I also purchased the Swann DVR and cameras for work.

Good question. On my camera (green version), just above the serial number, it only says "Pentax WG-3 GPS" where, on most items, it would be some intricate alphanumeric code. Same with the box. That's all I can find. I'll be interested in hearing from anyone else on this.

Hi, It means that it keeps track of your points digitally. There is a remote that is attached to the front that allows the players to turn it on and pick between games.

I bought a wired camera that attaches over the licence plate. Had a car audio shop install both GPS and camera as they know tricks to run wires.

When the car is moving, it is hard to read the license plate clearly. If the car stops at a traffic light, the license plate is clear as crystal in the recorded video.

if you use this for a company that has many cars or trucks you would enter the plate number to be able to tell which camera belong to which car and so on

Hi, I did not use a license plate mount for my camera. I have a Hummer wagon and mounted mine above the rear window. Though I know a friend that did use the license plate mount and he's very happy with the installation. Plus we both did our own installations. they weren't that hard to complete.I hope this helps.

When it came to the GPS function, I didnt really find it helpful. The map on the camera does not show you pin point where you are. Its just a map unless I did it wrong. It does come with a disk to download but I didnt do that either. I think it supposed to GPS tag your photo but I didnt see that either so I just treat it as a camera without GPS.

I would recommend a camera in the megapixel family of cameras before I wanted to reliably read license plates. You're getting up there in price with a high quality one. Check out Arecont Vision cameras.
