MiVue 508
Below are just a few of the many outstanding Magellan features that the entry-level MiVue 508 device includes.

    --  Impact Sensor - Records impact forces, which show the direction and
        magnitude of an accident impact.
    --  Bright Anti-glare F Lens - Reduces glare and absorbs reflection,
        resulting in brighter and clearer videos, even in low light conditions.
    --  1080p Full HD Recording - Capture everything that happens on your drive
        in crystal clear HD.
    --  Wide Angle Lens - The wide-angle DashCam lens provides an enhanced
        peripheral view to record the entire street.
    --  Rotating Mount Design - Mount is easily rotated to any desired angle
        assuring you never miss an important moment.
    --  Event Recording Mode - When the 3-axis sensor detects sudden changes in
        motion, the device instantly saves protected files to prevent them from
        being overwritten.
    --  Parking Mode - In situations where there's an impact while the car is
        parked, the DashCam wakes up to record the event.  You can even choose
        to have the device always recording with vehicles that have constant
        power supplies.
    --  Camera Mode - Switch to Camera Mode to collect photo evidence or create
        lasting memories.  With the built-in battery, the device can be taken
        out of the car to get close-up photos.
    --  MiVue Manager - Intuitive interface allows you to browse recorded
        videos. Video recorded from the Impact Sensor can be reviewed for
        post-accident analysis. Video may be shared on social media sites like
        YouTube(TM) & Facebook®.
MiVue 538
In addition to all of the features above, the MiVue 538 also includes the following.

        records your driving information on the video, so you have both a
        location and time stamp when you playback the video.
