Dogear 0 Posted December 7, 2013 Anyone have an idea what causes horizontal lines in low light? These Swann Pro 540 cameras have a decent picture in daylight. When switching to B&W, they are pretty clear until it gets dark, then these lines begin on three out of the four cameras. Dogear Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kawboy12R 0 Posted December 8, 2013 I bet the lines clear up if you add a bit of white light to the scene. Looks to me like the chip in the camera is trying so hard to get a passable picture that the "Pro" camera is almost screaming. I will say that I've seen cheap-ish IR cams function in the dark with better picture quality than those shots though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dogear 0 Posted December 9, 2013 Thanks for all the replies. I have turned on lights, and the picture clears up, but I thought that's what the led's for for--to enable the cameras to see in the dark. I guess I got what I paid for. The system was on sale at Sam's. They just might get it back. Dogear Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
