does this camera have ir leds that look blue when visitors see them at night as shown here? or are they red like most cameras?

I did notice they appear to be a faint blue compared to the normal red on the other cameras. FWIW - This camera's IR illumination does seem to be much better than what comes from the stock cameras, & they only turn on when it's dark.

This is the standard camera. It does not have an IR sensor. You're thinking of the motion-activated camera, which does, and No it does not make a noise.

Yeah, we have some Speco cams that have invisible IR lights. So they are not visible at night. It seems the invisible IR lights are getting harder and harder to find these days.

Yes, the LED panel lights up in red for a second but then goes off but only at night. Day pictures are chystal clear and has a long depth range! Has to be where nobody would be able to mess with it. I mounted mine just out of hands reach to stop this problem I was having. Over all I am impressed with the camera. I would like a little bit more clarity at night..but for the price I have no complaints.

If you know what you are looking for, you can see the red, but I have had numerous people tell me that the lights are "burnt out" or not working. They didn't know that they were IR lights.

If you look directly at the Camera at night, the led's are a dull red when the camera sees me. Not very noticeable but visible. The resulting picture is black & white. We have a nice set of photos of a bear in our back yard at night. Many of the photos are of me tending the bird feeders.

Please note that the product specs indicate that infrared LEDs are used to provides an alternate light source to supplement visible light for the camera 'see' in low and no light conditions. It is not to be confused with night vision which amplifies whatever visible iight is available.

Yes, The IR's are visible at night, the IR wavelength being 850nm. Not bright, just a dull glow as in all IR cameras with 850nm wavelength's. The night vision is very good, more like a floodlight effect. I have 2 and just ordered another one. I have 16+ cameras around my yard, this one sees the best. Hope this helps.Mike

They are great color during daylight and very bright lights at night.BUT regular night vision is B&W.; The cameras are infra-red at night

That's a loaded question, the camera in order to view any image at night uses infrared lighting and so the image is not in color. But during the day yes it is color images you will see.

Do Not purchase. This camera does not perform as advertised. However works fine in normal light. To answer your question LED lights are barely visible. Hard to tell if camera working.

You can see the LEDS at night. They are not so obvious as to grab your attention, however, if you are within 6-10 feet and looking directly at the camera, the LEDs are visible.

Right. The lamps produce light that is constant. These lights are not triggered by the camera's flags or an IR device.

While camera is advertised to have IR LEDs, my didn't, but if you are wiring it to auto back up lights I don't see IR LEDs are needed. It has more than adequate sensitivity to show area illuminated by the backup lights. It worked far better than a camera I replaced with IR LEDs.

Yes, you can see IR at night. I use it for 2 legged trespassers as well. Mostly for deterrent. I have other security cameras installed and use this one pick up the back of the property where other security cameras can't get at night.

Yes, the IR LEDs will be visible during night time or in dark areas once the Nightvision is Enabled.

Dale, I own another brand but the infrared cameras do not flash visible light(infrared wavelength 'flash' is outside human eye perception). There is a red glow on the IR LEDs when the camera is triggered. It's not bright, but it is visible if you're looking at it. If you position your cams right, nobody knows http://www.gizmology.net/LEDs.htm will tell you more than you want to know about IR emitters
