FAQs

Will this work with my Garmin DriveSmart 65?

No, this polarised lens cover is specifically designed for compatible Garmin Dash Cams (45, 46, 47, 55, 56, 57, Mini, Mini 2) and the Remote camera. It is not compatible with navigation devices like the DriveSmart series.

How does a polarising filter improve video clarity?

A polarising filter works by blocking certain light waves that cause glare and reflections. This allows more of the desired light to reach the camera sensor, resulting in clearer images with reduced unwanted reflections from surfaces like water, glass, or roads.

Can I use this lens cover in low light conditions?

While the primary benefit is in bright conditions, it can be used in low light. However, like any filter, it may slightly reduce the amount of light entering the lens, which could have a minor impact on very dark environments. For optimal low-light performance, consider removing the cover if glare is not an issue.

How often should I clean the lens cover?

Clean the lens cover whenever you notice smudges or dust that might affect video quality. A quick wipe with a microfiber cloth before a drive is often sufficient.

Does this lens cover protect against impact?

The lens cover offers some protection against minor scratches and dust. However, it is not designed as a heavy-duty impact protector.

What is included in the pack?

The pack contains one (1) Garmin Polarised Lens Cover.

Troubleshooting

Lens cover won't stay on

Ensure you are using a compatible Garmin model and that the clip-on tabs are fully engaged. Check for any obstructions on the camera or the cover's mounting points.

Video still has glare after attaching cover

Verify the lens cover is correctly oriented and fully seated. Ensure the cover itself is clean. Note that polarising filters are most effective at specific angles to the light source and may not eliminate all reflections in every scenario.

Difficulty attaching or removing the cover

Apply gentle, even pressure when attaching. If removing, carefully use your fingernail to disengage the clips, avoiding excessive force that could damage the cover or camera.
