Can anyone ID this door checker?
With all this light, certainly the camera could work better, yet it has the distinctive Ring purple tint when the camera can't decide to go B/W or color.
And being inside looking out doesn't help.
And too high and too wide a view isn't useful for ID.
And the top comment "He is wearing a work jacket. The police will be able to zoom in and read his name and employer name" If only this were a TV show....

Haha yeah, those blurry Nextdoor posts are something else—you get one pixelated shadow and suddenly it’s a full investigation. Half the time you can’t even tell if it’s a person or just bad lighting moving around.Love these posts on Nextdoor type apps LOL.
This thread will be used for members to post the poor quality consumer grade type camera images that we see people post to the Nextdoor type apps.
Can anyone make out this person that went thru their cars LOL....

The Better typical picture of a Perp we capture with better cameras than the consumer grade camera images we tend to see on Nextdoor
A while back I started the thread for us to comment and point out the issues and problems with consumer grade cameras and the images that people have posted to the NextDoor type apps. That thread has been a great resource to send the NOOB to in order to see what quality they don't get from...ipcamtalk.com
Here is a good thread that shows one of the few times that an incident happened in a neighborhood and we are able to see side-by-side what the consumer grade camera provided versus the better quality cameras.
Stranger Danger: Side-by-side captures of Ring/Arlo/Nest vs Better Cameras
This post is a combination of the Typical Ring/Arlo/Nest Captures thread and the Captures from Better Cameras thread. It's not too often we have side-by-side images of the crappy, consumer grade cameras with the same subject as better cameras that have been installed with a purpose. It...
