How well does the camera see at night? I dont see any infrared LED for night time driving in the product photos.

Nothing you can put on a dashcam is going to be powerful enough to illuminate anything much beyond your own hood. IR LEDs are useful only for dashcams that are taking pictures INSIDE your car.

It works ok at night. If you want to see clearly you may need to either buy a ptz camera that has IR illuminaters built in, or buy a IR spot to light up the area you need to see the most clearly at night.

As with all IR lights I am aware of, there is a dull red glow if you look directly at the emitters at night. This camera has fantastic night vision.

It doesn't have night vision but if you're driving in a well lit area like the city limits where there's street lights the video is excellent. .. I'm a truck driver and even on the dark highways the video is pretty good... I love this camera, when I purchased this camera it was $300 and I thought it was worth the money and its marked down now and I still think its a good buy!

Sounds like you are having trouble with the night vision IR. Call zmodo 800 line. They are very good. Sounds to me like the camera may have been damaged in shipping or something. It should definitely see in the dark.

Hi Night vision is great. I had sensors issues with the first one I lost sound and grid lines after one month.Amazone replaced it no charge .Have this one for 3 months and it's perfect.

I think there is only infrared function for night shot. You can take white-black video at night not color one

No, It has no night vision, in fact , at night you see nothing, though it´s exellent at day light . There are options in ntework cameras with infrared leds ... Try That . It´s better !

Night Vision works the best when it's complete dark. If you install camera in half dark environment, the camera IR LED won't completely turn on, that's the worse situation for night vision camera.

I have not used it at night but it works well at dusk. Cant beat it for the price. You want something that works at night go gen 3 night vision or thermal, but $$$

No daylight flash, only IR, so you see nothing. The shutter is extremely quiet. I've walked around in front of the activated camera many times and can't hear anything. The biggest issue is hiding it, so humans don't spot it.

There is no IR for this cam, so no night vision. How much the cam can capture depend on the street light and your car head light.

You can see the LEDS at night. They are not so obvious as to grab your attention, however, if you are within 6-10 feet and looking directly at the camera, the LEDs are visible.

The camera does not use infrared for night pictures. It uses the LED's across the top of the camera as a flash and the intensity of the flash can be set to 100%, 75%, 50%, 25% or turned Off through the set up settings.

You'll ultimately have to gauge this yourself, but I don't believe they're bright enough to stand out as obvious unless you're looking up, or specifically looking for the camera lens. The infrared LED's are very dim and unidirectional, they're not anywhere near as bright as an LED light on your car dash or alarm clock. They do not throw a red lighting pattern like you might think. So I don't view them as a light source someone would immediately be drawn to while walking around, or a light source you'll notice out of the corner of your eye from that distance. I mounted 1 of mine at 7' in a corridor at my front door to make it obvious, but the others are at 10' or higher, and people just don't see the dim glow.

These cameras do include infrared LEDs that turn on automatically as lighting gets dark. There is no manual control to turn these on or off, or to control the intensity. The night vision are much brighter if the camera is used indoors as the light reflects off object or walls; when used outdoors with no reflection of the infrared light, it seems to be less effective unless something/someone comes into foreground view in range of the LED lighting. Also note, if cameras are placed behind glass or a window, the LEDs will reflect intensely and make viewing subjects behind the glass impossible.
