psprigs 0 Posted December 11, 2009 Hi, i Have installed a pc based dvr system 6 internal domes and 2 external, into a chip shop, the external are 420tv, 1/3, 3.6m which is fine to view their car park, it has low light so some pir floods might be a idea... but the customer had a trailer stolen and although the camera picked out the car and people etc involved the camera of course couldnt read the number plate... which wasnt really a issue on installation as the customer didnt want to spend the money.... so like alway after the incident.. im thinking at a height of maybe 3 metres direct facing to the entrance which is 1 car width wide, put a NITE-DEVIL TRAD IR CAP 5-100MM LENS camera in? the pc system would only need to record the plate rather than analyse/read it... Would this camera be suitable? ive been told poss upto 40mm lense for the job? Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
