Good Dash Cam

Hey Ozbargain,
I really want to get a dash cam for my car. I want something low profile (no screen), front and back camera, and with some sort of parking mode to capture if my car gets hit while not running. I also do not care about a GPS. I found a cam that seemed almost perfect, the Blackvue Dr-590 2CH (https://www.blackvue.com/product/dr590-2ch) with the Power Pack Pro (https://www.blackvue.com/product/b-112/) for parking mode support. The only problem is that this will cost around $550 Aud.

Now my question is, is there anything out there similiar cheaper but can still do a decent job
or
should I just save up and buy the Blackvue because I have heard from many people that they are extremely good quality?

    I got one of these https://the-gadgeteer.com/2018/01/17/conbrov-t17-car-dash-ca…
    I'm pretty happy, it works fine and in all weather (44 degree days too.)

      OP wants parking mode. That doesn't seem to have it.

        Yeah wanted something with parking mode and don't really want a screen either. Thanks for the suggestion.

    Viofo is inexpensive and an OZB favourite.
