Interestingly, I could not notice obvious ghosting / smearing from the T54IR in forced color mode in one of his videos.

I went back and looked: This is the only nighttime color video he has produced of that camera. Sure, the smearing is harder to see because the image is so dim, but you can see it smearing his head, and it smears the plate so bad that it's never readable.

I didn't force color mode on the T54IR. I let them each do their thing. As I said, I'll need to do some tweaking.

It was dim enough I thought it would've switched over already—it must've been right at the edge of switching! You can nudge its switching sensitivity up or down in Image -> Day/Night -> Sensitivity. Limiting its maximum gain (in Exposure) will make it switch even sooner.

That's why I did the test 40 minutes after sunset. I wanted to see what would happen right at that time when there is a twinge of light in the sky. The G6 Pro had already switched (probably because it is in more of a shadowed area) and the T54IR changed right after the test. There were extenuating circumstances for the T54IR due to the light across the street and the reflection from the car right below it. I was surprised at how bad the T54IR looked at that time because of how well it's done so far. It just goes to show that cameras really need the granular controls like the Dahua offers. Ubiquiti should open up those controls more.

OTOH, this is also their weakness, regular people are not going to spend time tweaking those controls. To me, it looks like both, Dahua and Ubuquiti are trying to use "AI" to automate those tweaks and both are failing doing this, so far... I hope someday, someone going to figure it out... but also use a good sensor :)

In case anyone is wondering, "The Ubiquiti UniFi G6 Pro Turret camera features a built-in 400-lumen white-light LED." That is pretty respectable with a built-in warm light.
