Is the IR invisible/ is it black and white viewing/degrees of projection. how many effective yards does the IR operate clearly from

IR is visible. viewing is green. I have used at 100 yds but it may work at a longer range. I was able to see a rabbit fairly clear at that range.

Infrared that you can see IF you look right at it... Some have Black IR that is nothing but a sunglass type screen on it, but this does not! The camera and flash rotate from right to left as you look at it, taking a set of 3 pictures to make the panoramic picture. Again, unless you are looking directly at it, you don't notice it, and the rotation is silent as well as the picture taking.

The cam connects with BNC...Any IR cam only really does about 1/2 of advertised night vision..i bought a couple power splitters on Amazon and a couple external "illuminators" (ir units).. greatley improved range.

IR requires line of sight and has a shorter distance limit. You can turn your head and lose the IR signal. RF is better for this purpose.

If the camera is mounted too parallel to the ground, the infrared light will not be able to illuminate the area to project an image. Try aiming the camera more toward the ground and see if the "view" improves.

The cameras are color in normal operation, but of course black and white when using infrared at night. I don't know the actual max range; mine are at most 100 ft from camera to receiver.

Hi 15m on the metric conversion calendar = 49 feet of IR night vision described in the info instructions. I sent back my 2 cameras I never got them to work properly without the CD's. Please also check the other on line reviewers. In the beginning all reviews were 5 stars. So I purchased 2 cameras. I agree totally with S R's Review every word is true. . Good luck VRLT.

Suzanna, when powering the light, are you in a dark room ? If not you will not see IR illuminate. Also the angle you look at the unit play into the equation. If further help is needed please feel free to contact me by e- mail at 511securitymanagement@gmail.com. Have a great day. Sgt. John R. McGrath

IR is line of sight. If you can't see the sensor it won't work. That goes for any IR receiver. You would need RF (radio frequency).

The res is okay, not HD. I have it in an area not 10ft away and seems to get enough lite(infrared) to see. I have it inside.

Infrared is invisible to the human eye. The light can only be seen with night vision equipment.

Yeah, we have some Speco cams that have invisible IR lights. So they are not visible at night. It seems the invisible IR lights are getting harder and harder to find these days.

Yes, the biult-in IR illuminator allows one to see pretty well up to 30 yards when in near complete darkness. But you don't want to look at the ground in front of your feet 'cause the image you see is not true 1x. Bascially the ground will look closer than it actually is when using the NVD and it is hard to not stumble when navigating this way. Use one eye with the device to look ahead, use the other to glance at what is in front of your feet. If its too dark to see whats in front of you with your unaided eye, then tuff luck. A good headleamp may be more pratictal for trail walking.

I got the sightmark ghost hunter and it had the IR mounted with it. I like it a lot and it works real great.

I can not tell you the exact resolution, however, I can tell you that I can easily see small details of faces, clothes etc. as if you were looking out the window at them. Of course, the resolution of the monitor is the limiting factor. IR range is about 20 feet or so. Any farther and you can not recognize the person. It is NOT weather proof.

That is correct, no night vision. No IR capability. Other than that, I'm extremely happy with my unit. It's been working non-stop in an outdoor environment from 90F to -15 degrees in a remote location. I am using the network connection, have not experimented with trying the wifi.

In infrared only, not visible light. Night pictures will be recorded in black and white.
