Is this really a night vision camera system. Mine not picking up any images at night. Do I have to do any adjustments to get night vision?

Yes they do have night vision, works right out of the box no adjustment, mine work up to about 20 ft with no extra lighting

Night vision is not the best. I have these in my stores. We have found that leaving one light on really helps.

There are adjustments for brightness, color, contrast etc for each camera's image. If you are not picking up ANY images at night (even close up?) then there is something wrong. The camera switches between color day/lighted viewing and B&W; night vision...you should hear a click sound when it senses low light and switches over. When you look at the cameras at night there should be a slight red glow from them which is the infrared LEDs that illuminate objects within ~25ft. Check all the VCR settings, like motion capture, make sure the cameras are on, and the LEDs are functioning.

YES- It is -If it's not getting a Night Image then you have a problem no adj for it

There is no adjustments - I suggest that you put up lights near the cameras then they work perfect. You must have light to aid the cameras. They don't tell you that when you purchase the equipment however my installer gave me the heads up.

I found mine works best in 'Sunshine' mode at night. Makes no sense but it is what it is. It still underwhelms at night but I suppose if there were an accident it would suffice to show fault. Forget reading license plates at night: this camera is just not up to the task.

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

I had this problem. The night vision started to fade and not function properly and I called Motorola and they replaced the unit. It's happening again with our new camera and I am not happy about it. Motorola should replace the unit for you though if this is happening. I am calling them this week to either get a new camera or demand a refund so I can buy a different product.

Yes - the night vision capability is controlled by the camera not the base system.

when you buy the camera make sure it says ''infrared'' for if it dose it should have a category of pic or video. If it dosebuy it.it will take video clips at night when the motion detector is triggered. If your using it for surveillance add more cammo nettingto the camera to break up image. Use rubber cement to attach extra cammo netting. Drill a hole in the back and attach it to tree with a power tool.it works! tauz

No IR/Night Vision. Camera is 720p HDTV 30fps. I've used these for a while and they are awesome. The DVR software is free to download. The only caveat is no night IR but with outside motion lights it hasn't been an issue. Check them out at Www.ubnt.com

If by nightvision you mean it can see in total darkness? Then no. But if you got enough lighting it can see as far as 15 feet away. Which is better than most cameras at this price. Especially web cams. If you want an actual nightvision that can see in total darkness you'd be paying a bit for that. The one I got picked out will cost me 150 bucks. They aren't cheap. If you see one cheap, its most likely a scam. All in all i thought this camera was a pretty decent investment for the price. Used 4 of them to keep watch on my property. Particularly this one here is one of the better ones.

That is correct, no night vision. No IR capability. Other than that, I'm extremely happy with my unit. It's been working non-stop in an outdoor environment from 90F to -15 degrees in a remote location. I am using the network connection, have not experimented with trying the wifi.

Hey Nino, with this camera you can record video and take pictures (with an amazing quality). It has camera/video recorder options that you can adjust depending on what you want. It does not have infrared/night vision capabilities but make sure you check out the accesories, you might find something useful for your needs.

The IR light does bounce back with this model too. But I just turn the IR light off, from the menu. The cameraj is very sensitive and I find I have a very usable image at night with just a light ambient light, no IR needed.

This is not a night vision camera therefore it requires some light source ie backup light. I have some Cree backup bulbs so it works well at night.

Define "Night Vision" . . . Define what you expect to see . . .It is OK in low light, like room at night with a single light source, but no, it is not mil spec Night Vision, IR Sensitive, nor is it meant to be used in a "total lights out" situation. In some marginal light situations, you may get a recording, but it will be grainy.

Good Question. As I have written in my review posted below, no real user guide to help. I have not used the camera at night as of yet. It may actually make the transition to night mode as it senses the decrease in available light. From my Post: "It is not so much that I have any real problems with the camera's performance (for the price), it's that you are left to suffer much trial and error in figuring the thing out because there is no real "User Guide." Oh you get one. but it is more like a "Quick Reference" guide that you would use after you have read a real one. The camera design employs multi-use buttons. No real manual, no helps, Very disappointed with that!" Good Question. As I have written in my review posted below, no real user guide to help. I have not used the camera at night as of yet.

Hi Andrew, The camcorder has a Night Scene mode to shoot Night scenery but doesn't have night vision. - Vincent

Mine is ok at night because any motion that triggered the recording feature also triggered my motion light in the area of camera focus. I have mine set to the ultimate focus for the area it covers,but I don't believe you can alter the focus once it has been recorded.
