how well lit is the aera. possibly not enough light and they are switching to B/W.

Hi, going by the specs:

 

first, I would suggest never to order that camera again - its not a sony camera its a COP camera and its a CMOS chip. The BW resolution leaves much to be questioned: B/W: NTSC(320x240).

 

Going by the specs though, as it mentions 3.6mm for BW and 6mm for color, and it is a fixed lens, that the camera is either sold as a COLOR or BW camera, not both. Either way, the color says it needs at least 3 lux so anything less would be BW.

Hello, here comes some information about this camera:

 

Resolution Ratio: B/W: NTSC(320x240) - PAL(352x288) /COLOR: NTSC(510x492) - PAL(628x582)

 

Illumination: B/W 0.5 LUX @f1.4 / COLOR <3Lux@f1.2

 

Lens Focus and Visual Angle:3.6mm 72°(B/W) 6.0mm 52°(COLOR)

 

Supply Voltage/Consumption:8-12V / 90mW(B/W) - 6-12V / 120mW(COLOR)

 

There should be many reasons, the most possible one could be the second and third. Please check it carefully.

 

Good luck!
