It's OK. If you have an outdoor light with motion-sensing capability that would help with image quality. This is my first system, so I don't have much to compare. So far this has been the best camera. I've purchased 3 different types. Lorex, another off brand, and this one. These are the best so far. The more IR lights a camera has the better night vision. 700TVL or higher recommended for any camera. Good luck!

You need a great dvr to see the quality. It's fantastic at night as well as the day!

This camera has stopped working and is about to be returned. I'am reading up on the process of how to return said item. However, the night viewing is of good quality. The sony 700tvl is also a camera with good quality. 36iR leds are a must.

I have it in my family room and at night it is horrible. I do not like this camera. I have a couple of Sony Enhanced Effio-E 700TVL Dome Style Camera - 2.8-12mm Lens - 36IR LED - Empire Security Cameras Model ESC3. They are sold on Amazon and they sell through their website. In my opinion it is a much better camera.

This camera does NOT have true night shot with a built in IR light, but takes pretty good videos, although a bit grainy, at night. The videos in the day are not grainy like this, though.

Since this is a very good camera what you might want to do is some research on lighting that you can attach to it for night lighting. There is only so much that can be done at night as should be known. There are some really good lights now being produced such as LED.

Daytime photos/video are great. However, night time would be a problem...the quality is not good.... I would not recommend it for that purpose.....hope I helped answer your concerns...

The camera is very compact. Takes very nice pictures when there is good light. Battery life is good. The camera is horrible during late afternoon, night and low light conditions.

the camera is good in nightshot plus in auto up to 1/2 into dusk, then the focus starts going haywire. In manual, it is good up to about 10 ft+/-, as long there is a light colored subject there....it can pick up trees, but.... Inside, it is good up to 15ft.+/- for a clear shot. Again, if lighter the colors inside the rooms, the little further you can see. I have gotten s far as 30ft with white walls and objects around it....you may have a little different results with yours. Beware, it does drain the battery faster than norm.....even faster in the cold....have not tried it outside in the dark with snow on the ground, yet. Hope this long winded answer is what you were looking for!

The camera is very impressive when it come to night shooting. The night time pictures appear to be filled with light using the ai or automatic point and shoot. Best I v ever owned. Very good night time pics...thumbs up.

I haven't yet tried the license plate test but for a non HD camera i'm very happy with the daytime image. The night viewing with the IR emitters is also decent and i guess i can see over 100 feet. As you might expect, the nighttime image isn't as good as daytime and not as clear but i can see cars, deer, dogs, people although not with a great amount of detail. For the price, very good. I've ordered more. Amazon has some reviews of this camera. Check them out.If you really need to read plates at any kind of distance you probably need an HD camera. I think they're fairly expensive.

I think it's pretty good. I can clearly see my child. I had an older Motorola camera and the night vision wasn't nearly as good as this one.

Hello Michael, yes, this is a color camera in good light condition, daytime in most of cases. In night mode is grey scale colors, but not bad quality image, always is the same good quality, thanks for ask.

keep in mind that this is 1080p HD camera, so in my opinion, the quality at night time (in almost total darkness, the only lights are from my vehicle headlights) is VERY GOOD. You can see everything and anything clearly in the recording.

It is very good camera with good resolution in day light but the night vision is not as good as I was hopping to be.

I bought an "Esky waterproof NTSC universal camera". It has night vision and so far it has met my expectations. You will need some sort of monitor to display the images from the camera if you don't already have one.

Indoor shots and dark night outside photos came out great. This camera has a night setting.

Ive never owned a better camera, this camera takes really awesome still pics in night and awesome moving pics in light. So i would expect it to take great if not awesome fast moving low light pics

I have yet to try this camera at night. It does, however, work well in low light conditions. I would say that the range for good images is around 15 feet, but this camera does not have the same high resolution as a normal point and shoot.
