How is the License Plate Recognition quality? Does it give me just the picture or text?

I have this camera in my driveway. If recording at full resolution I am able to clearly see the license plate numbers on a car at a distance of 35 feet or closer zooming in on the in image. Anything farther then 30-35 feet gets distorted and unreadable.

It all depends on the angle and if and how fast the car is moving. The camera has very good definition. It is not any special application for license plate recognition

On the one I got the plates were fixed. The lettering was so small I could not recognize my own address. It was returned.

no it does not. The only thing displayed other than the image is the date/time stamp. Here is a Youtube video of a review with in car driving. https://youtu.be/ZAcw7PVibJ8

All license plates are the same size. Mine (New York) has "New York" on the top and "the Empire State" on the bottom covered, but not the place letters/numbers.

Can the alphanumerics of automobile license plates be clearly distinguished from 30ft?

I hadn't tried it until I saw the question but yes it can. I used my drivers license and got a crystal clear image. I also tried my credit card because I wanted to see if it could scan a card that wasn't exactly flat and got a great image from that as well.

I haven't yet tried the license plate test but for a non HD camera i'm very happy with the daytime image. The night viewing with the IR emitters is also decent and i guess i can see over 100 feet. As you might expect, the nighttime image isn't as good as daytime and not as clear but i can see cars, deer, dogs, people although not with a great amount of detail. For the price, very good. I've ordered more. Amazon has some reviews of this camera. Check them out.

I do not understand the question, but the (driver) software that includes the scanner works great. I have worked with photographs, text and documents and it has gone well. I use it for the house.

Yes it is - I am no techie. It's a good scanner!! Worth paying the extra money to upgrade to this model.

The camera has an option to program your car's license plate # into it, and have that display as an 'overlay' on the recorded video. Not sure what benefit that provides, but it can be setup that way if you so please.

I typically use photos of documents for my text conversions and I find the quality of the table scan depends depends on the quality of the photo input. if the photo is slightly out of focus the ocr output is poor. A scanner should be better quality than some photos so it should work.

The camera are of medium quality (in my opinion). If you want a really sharp image that can read a license plate then purchase better cameras. I originally purchased an 8 port DVR with four cameras then added these four. Good system even at night. I am pleased with it for my home security so I also purchased the Swann DVR and cameras for work.

This does not work very well for license plate reading. There just aren't enough lines of resolution.

I use it for driving cam for my truck. I haven't use it for personal photo or personal recording. What I can see is that when driving, even if I tailgate the car in front, I still can't see the license plate. But if I were to park and the car is in front I can see it just fine. This is due to the resolution of the camera. Also the battery did last about hour and a half when I first got it, but about 3month of use the battery life is down to less then 15minutes then it goes dead. I don't use this any more. I went and bought completely different camera.

Probably not, the reason this is called a license plate camera is the dynamic gain control that effectively digitally blocks the light from headlights to prevent the picture from being washed out. The picture quality on these is not bad, but it's not top of the line. But you're also not paying top dollar either.

Picture quality is pretty good, however I think my camera may have been shipped not quite square in the mount. I get a view that is aimed off to the side by a slight amount. This also could be a result of my license plate not sitting square on my bumper. I have no experience with the VTL100, but I can tell you that the 425 has a short pigtail that is connected to the cable which will run to your head unit/monitor. At that end, there is another connection where you will tap in power and the wired remote to switch views.

I don't know the exact number, but it's sufficient to allow you to recognize that there is a person within the camera range. If the person is familiar, then you'll of course recognize them, but I wouldn't count on it to give a very detailed picture for law enforcement. or to read something written.
