Does anyone know the IR camera wavelength? I'd like to extend the outside night vision with an illuminator

850 should be what you looking for. You can tell by you can still see the IR light with faint red.

I'm not sure Bill, but I do have a DCS-2332L outside camera which has limited built-in IR distance (15 feet?) but responds VERY well with a little supplemental lighting to increase it's night vision distance and clarity.

Unfortunately, there is no user control of this, it is automatic by a light sensor. However, I have seen mods on the internet to use the built-in remote controlled switch to wire the IR LEDs through, though I have not attempted this yet. This does pose a problem when using the camera at night looking through a window, all you get is IR glare.

Night pictures are normal color taken with a white flash. IR is only used for motion detection.

This camera has IR LEDs, up to 20m. From customers who bought this camera's feedback, it have good night vision. Sorry that we do not have any screenshots so far. Thanks,Best Regards,

Yes, but the IR LEDs can only illuminate up to about a meter. If you add additional more powerful IR lights, it will see much better. I tried this with a foscam 9821 netcam with IR and the mini cam sees much better with the foscam IR LEDs on.

Yes it uses infrared for night vision but as for the camera brand to be honest idk but for the price of the unit you will not be disappointed hope I was helpful

yes, if you see all the clear led's around the camera lens, those do IR for viewing of short range. I do not own this but in other cameras I own the quality is decent for about 10-15 feet at night

SecureCam (SHARX) is being VERY conservative when they tell you the IR range in total darkness is 45 ft. It's more like 45 meters. I have a few of them and they light up object easily over 100 feet away. In fact the IR is so strong I disabled one of them. I use a small $5 IR LED panel which lets me illuminate off axis from the camera. This actually gives me a better image as the shadows help you distinguish more features.

Sorry No. The 4 IR LEDs are at the corners of the lens. They are not very bright, a dim dull red color. If you hold your hand close to the lens it does have a effect, illuminating objects in total darkness only up to a foot away. They are no help when recording at night. I tried everything through the menu to turn them off with no luck, my solution was black electrical tape over the four LEDs

you will need a light source as you would with any camera in the dark. it can be full spec or just IR or both it will see this type of light due to its modification

Sure did. All of the clicking drive me nuts. I thing I have mine set at 5% tolerance and it fixed it. Going to have to find your own mix that works for your environment. It will pick up even the slightest light from like oven clocks to neighbors lights outside. It sees it all. My buddy had to leave his ir off and just use an external ir light. Good luck.

Not sure off hand. The IR light is visible to humans though, if that is what you are referring to. You do have to be in front of the light in order to see it. The estimated range of 80 yards for the IR is pretty accurate. Much farther if a reflective object. One thing about this scope that isn't mentioned anywhere is that after powering up the scope and the view is green you can turn it off and still have the same night vision. I have even taken the batteries out and it still works!

The lens are 2.8-12mm lens; you may manually adjust the camera's viewing angle between 40-115degrees and the viewing distance from 60-130feet; the infrared LEDs on the camera can shot out for ~115feet at night. With that being said, the maximum night vision distance you gain from this camera is 115feet.

At night, with the infra-red lights, the cameras simply show reflected light. If the camera is pointed at empty space (not pointed at trees, grass, or other objects), the night time picture will be entirely black. The infra-red lights seem to project out roughly 50 feet - of course at that distance at night it will be difficult to pick out many details about the object that is recorded. If there is ambient lighting (street lights, overhead security light, infra-red light provided by other cameras or external IR emitter) it is possible to extend the night time visible area.

Hello,The CMVision also provides infrared light in the 850 nm range. While I was using the device, it easily illuminated to 50 feet and beyond. Unfortunately, I had to return it since the LED's stopped working. The device definitely has the 50 feet range though.Good luck

Yes, the night vision is really good. The only thing is you need to get an IR light that projects at least 30 feet or so, maybe even get an IR flashlight that throws IR light even farther for outdoor activity.

Dale, I own another brand but the infrared cameras do not flash visible light(infrared wavelength 'flash' is outside human eye perception). There is a red glow on the IR LEDs when the camera is triggered. It's not bright, but it is visible if you're looking at it. If you position your cams right, nobody knows http://www.gizmology.net/LEDs.htm will tell you more than you want to know about IR emitters
