Does this camera have built in IR (infrared) night vision? I see YouTube videos with people talking about it but do not see anything written in the specs or description about it and want to make sure it is not a feature that has been discontinued in...

It does have this function, there is a switch on the side of the camera to turn the IR on. Honestly I haven't needed to use it or try it yet, so I'm not sure how well it works. But yes the function is there.

No, It has no night vision, in fact , at night you see nothing, though its exellent at day light . There are options in ntework cameras with infrared leds ... Try That . Its better !

Hello,Unfortunately I could not get the camera to connect to my computer, maybe just because my computer is older. Anyway, I am sending it back this week. It is my understanding that it does have infra-red capabilities though.Regards,Gerald

Nope, this camera lacks night vision, however it' clarity matches the 1080p resolution cameras, you need to have a ubiquity nvr or setup a computer with the recording software in order to achieve the best quality videos and record events, I have a ubuntu linux computer receiving video feed from 16 cameras just like the one you are showing

No, it doesn't. Neither have manual IR nightvision ( my older handycam has it).

This is the standard camera. It does not have an IR sensor. You're thinking of the motion-activated camera, which does, and No it does not make a noise.

the question/s are probably best served by directing to the manufacture, however I suspect the issue at hand is that these are indeed IR(infrared light) cameras specifically designed to see in the IR spectrum of light. some of these IR cams have visible light filters in place to make visible light corrections, this particular model of IR cam does quite well at night with little or no ambient light situations-but because of the lack of daylight filter correction you will get that magenta skewed coloration this is not a defect!! it is simply the way the camera sees ambient daylight!!! I have 6 of these cameras for security purposes therefore the lack of correct coloration during the daylight hours is not issue for me as this camera is very good at night and has built in microphone which is an added plus. I have done considerable amounts of research on CCTV cams for me this cam represents the best bang for the buck when you consider what you get in the package-most importantly for me the IR cam system works and works well-if you are interested in IR cams with daylight color corrections you will have to no doubt have to spend considerably more and you may not get the 100ft dedicated cable microphone or power supply with said purchase

It does not have any IR leds (or night vision). It's a 1MP that can run 720p images.

Dale, I own another brand but the infrared cameras do not flash visible light(infrared wavelength 'flash' is outside human eye perception). There is a red glow on the IR LEDs when the camera is triggered. It's not bright, but it is visible if you're looking at it. If you position your cams right, nobody knows http://www.gizmology.net/LEDs.htm will tell you more than you want to know about IR emitters

I don't have the same camera. My camera was purchased for HD night recording only and has to have an infrared light in order to use in the dark. The camera works with it in any setting it has. If your camera has a night vision mode that is what would probably work the best. I wish I could be more help to you.

Sounds like you are having trouble with the night vision IR. Call zmodo 800 line. They are very good. Sounds to me like the camera may have been damaged in shipping or something. It should definitely see in the dark.

I agree with j-rob. Does anyone know how the newer model (HDR-XR500V) performs in low-light situations? They claim the Exmor-R sensor helps with these situations. It's too bad there's no easy or cost-effective way to upgrade. I'm not in the position to spend another $1k+ for a new camcorder that handles low-light.

Bob, did you ever find out? I just ordered the camera and want to know the same thing! Thanks for any help.

This is an older model of the D70. There is no mention of infrared in the manual.

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.

No, there's no need. No infrared, but some kind of bluetooth or similar is used. But I cannot help you with the range, maybe in the camera specifications...
