I put up some IR cameras and built boxes with 1/8 inch clear plexiglass on the front and at night time all I can see is the camera it is like the plexiglass is a mirror at night time. Is there anything I can do like maybe tint it or ??? Thanks in advance Randy

I hear you on that I am looking at a PTZ-3130-LL for $1300.00 from ivcco dot you know what... I am not allowed to put links in forum yet Thanks Randy

Can you tell from the specs I entered if I should maybe get a better card or better cameras? Seems like the cams with a 6 mm lens should show a good pic at 150 feet but then again I am kind of new to this stuff Thanks Randy

I will try to give more detail of what I am trying to accomplish. I have a customer with a tow yard it is about 150 feet by 60 feet I have the cameras mounted on top of the building about 25 feet high two cameras criss cross eachother to see the 150 foot run (one on each corner of building) The problem is that you can not make out a face in either day or night. So I was wondering how to get a better image. Thanks Randy I bought 4 of these cameras CBI8954H Image Sensor 1/3" Color Sony Super HAD CCD Resolution 540 TV Lines Minimum Illumination 0 Lux w/ IR on Lens Furnished 6mm Power Supply 12V DC Power Consumption 650mA AWB yes Auto Gain Control Yes S/N ratio: More than 48dB Video Output 1.0Vp-p 75 Ohms Sync.
