@bigredfish - Can you verify if the dark tint model will see supplemental IR (850 Nm) can be 'seen' by this camera? I haven't seen a spec sheet anywhere that verifies what wavelength this camera uses, 850 nm or 940 nm. Thanks.

That would be great, if you could do this. Thanks, again.

Getting the hang of it
What are peoples night settings for both Colour and Black/White. For both I get ghosting to the point the person becomes invisible.
This camera, more than any other I have seen, takes a long time to dial in and since no people have the same field of view and light, it is really a challenge to provide a good starting point.
The usual stuff to start with still applies - try shutter no slower than 1/60 and keep NR as low as possible. But it is a lot of trial and error for your field of view. And a recognition that you may have to pull back the effective distance you would like to see good quality. My other PTZ on the ideal MP/sensor ratio has an effective ID quality range at night at least 3 times further away than this one.
But because this camera is on the less than ideal MP/sensor ratio with a weaker IR, it is a struggle to get good night vision quality.

Daytime is pretty easy, but with such weak IR and small sensor, nighttime is a challenge without adding external light (IR or white)

I have a street light at the end of my driveway so no problems at night.

At that price, I had to grab the cameras right away. Cheaper than my 5442-Ase-S2.
Would love to see a day and a night video with movement. This is what I have and have thought about replacing this cam with that one.
