trauts14 0 Posted November 13, 2016 In a situation where I want to monitor/record cars going down the street in front of my house (No LPR), what FPS is recommended? The IP cam will be 5 feet away from street with an IR illuminator a few feet above said camera. I was going to use a 6mm lens cam for a tight high quality pic of just the road and cars. I have no idea what FPS cams do best with at night when there are moving cars and people in the road. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FIERCE4203 0 Posted November 23, 2016 I think you are mistaking frame rate as frames per second and shutter speed or exposure. Shutter speed for night vision would be typically 1/30 to 1/3 depending ambient light. However reading plates you would need fps of 30 and alot of ir light with shorter exposure time aprox 1/250.
