Problem with CCTV Night Images
tomcctv replied to MatthewJL's topic in IP/Megapixel Cameras and Software Solutions
Again you have spider webs over camera ........ Please don't say there not .....it has always been a problem with built in IR cameras and the reason why you only see them with IR on is because the web reflects the IR.... And this makes them visible...... Also your pictures show that problem look at your first post image ..... The web is in a different place than were it is you your last picture and this eliminates a scratched cover or lens.. you can't see the webs because they are very fine. try again tonight but this time clean the camera once the webs start to show -

Well you listen to your sales rep he can work his magic .... because you need a magician 1amp over that distance also what is your voltage drop also you did not mention you used RG6 which is not used for cctv we we can only give advice on experience and we have sold and installed 100s of locations with cvi -
Hi. Firmware update most of the time on generic units kills them. Why do you need firmware ? It does not make your system newer

We still need to know the camera format ... CVI TVI AHD ? 450 / 600ft 1 amp will still give you problems -
I can't decide which camera to get

Ok ... just with you quoting £ in your early post I was going to say there are no trespassing laws in the uk. Yes trail cameras have a good battery life some for weeks some do have Wi-Fi and you can wirelessly daisy chain them back to your network you could also use a 3-4g motion sensor in same location as camera and get text alerts they can be had for around $45 -

tomcctv replied to JzKKs13#u"3@6^!6nQV6~$]oN3's topic in Security Cameras
The two listed are smart cameras not cctv .... made for indoor or close view. Putting them into an area like yours is going to use up the SD card in a day with all the motion detect ezviz storage is a waste of time and needs your camera to send data to ezviz server and you can only have a few hours of recording a day .... then you have to pay why I ask about ptz is the camera can be closer to the power and data and let the lens do the distance ..... plus you can move it (ptz) to any location what at is the camera going to do .... pick out people or protect something ? -

Keep testing simple ....... connect a camera that your having a problem with to a test lead next to dvr (short coax) this will eliminate wrong region and format problems. How have you terminated coax at dvr and camera end what size power supply are you using -

tomcctv replied to glaursen's topic in General Digital Discussion
Hi. You could have a few problems ..... 1 is you should never solder coax do you know what camera format you have .... standard analog or HD analog ( cvi tvi ahd) cameras need to match dvr format also another problem could be you have the wrong region cameras .... ntsc or pal if your recorder is ntsc and you buy pal format you will get a similar problem to what you have. Have you tried connecting camera on a test cable next to dvr ?
