vmgtlexi 0 Posted November 8, 2011 What are you feelings of domes versus bullets for an application needing infrared? Is one design (domes versus bullets) inherently better than the other when IR will be used, or does one design tend to have more challenges over the other? Thanks!

dahomes555 0 Posted November 8, 2011 No difference per se, based just on camera type. More importantly is the number of IRs, the quality of the image sensor, and the Lux rating of the camera's sensor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vmgtlexi 0 Posted November 9, 2011 Thanks. It seems like domes might have more problems with IR reflection merely b/c their glass is curved. It seems that if the lens is not seated exactly right up against the glass, there could be greater risk of IR reflection versus bullets. Is there any truth to that?

IR also attracts bugs... so it may increase the false-alerts on your motion-detection, as bugs fly into the lens. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
