...I think I like the 66W better.
The Tandem does work great, but the only way to control it is by using the Drive app on my iPhone which seems to take forever to make a combined video of the front and rear cameras. Too long to be practical really, they should have an app you can run on your Mac to do that jo

Good cam but missing features
Good camera although mine doesn't capture sound although it is on, the camera doesn't have the alerts provided by other previous model as this one doesn't have a screen to show
