Kurt 0 Posted April 21, 2008 I did some testing with various cam's to find that some cam's go to B/W mode in poor light conditions while others remain in color. I know there is the IRcut function where a IR filter is mechanically moved away from the lens at night. But I also have cam's w/o IRcut that also go in B/W to improve the image quality. What is the trick? Exview? Are cam's with IRcut always exview? Exview always uses IRcut? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CollinR 0 Posted April 22, 2008 Fake day/night just removes the saturation from the picture making it BW then it turns up the gain. True day/night does same but also remove the light filter allowing most light energy to the imager. This can occur as a reaction to photocel or video driven like the iris. Any imager can do either or. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kurt 0 Posted April 22, 2008 Okay, but how to tell from the spec's when it's a 'fake'? Is this technic with the saturation always used in combination with the more sensitive Exview CCD's? Or do Exview always use an IRcut filter? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SSTIPS 0 Posted April 23, 2008 Most of the specs I see state either "True Day/Night with IR Cut Filter" or simply "Day/Night" The price can also clue you in.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
