Does this camera pick up infared light frequencies? Such as 940nm ir led lights.

It can, however there is a square IR filter over the sensor chip in the camera used to block IR light and improve picture quality. This filter can be removed to make the camera more sensitive to IR light by unscrewing the main lens and carefully pulling out the filter.

Yes, the IR LEDs emit a visible red glow in the 890 nanometer wavelength.it is a very good illuminator for the price. I have also purchased Invisible IR-200-940 CMVision 940nm Wavelength 198 IRLED. Look for 940nm IR LEDs. If u want invisable. But be careful. Alot of cameras will not detect light at that high of a wavelength.

The infrared lights illuminate red when the camera takes a picture and yes, they are visible, otherwise they are off. Its not very bright, but noticeable if you are looking at the camera. There is also a small red light on the camera indicating it is on and a green light illuminates when a picture is taken. It also makes a slight whir when it takes the picture.

The infrared light emitted by the LEDs is not visible to the human eye, however the LEDs also emit some light (red) in the visible wavelength range. I'm not sure what you mean by "match", but the image quality is excellent in IR mode and I'm using this camera with some Q-See brand QM6006B (bullet style) cameras and having no issues.

Yes. You can see the photo cell on the picture, its in the center of all the IR LED's.

It does not have infrared capability. We have a motion triggered light outside. When the light is triggered the camera does show the lighted area very nicely. It won't see anything in pitch darkness.

Doubtful. Most cameras have an IR filter. Otherwise your pictures would have a pinkish hue.

This camera has a CCD image sensor, which is generally more sensitive to near infrared than the CMOS image sensors that newer/fancier/pricier cameras seem to use these days. HOWEVER: this camera probably has an IR filter in between the lens and the image sensor that you will have to remove via camera surgery in order to use this as an infrared camera. HTH.

No, it's not IR sensitive. It does work well with low visible light, but not IR.

To be effective any camera including yours must be capable of filtering the light source to receive and use the infrared spectrum, most commonly the 840nm band. The infrared light may be visible but not usable.

The IR leds on mine are not visible at all, however, the camera's on/off and mode indicator LEDs on the back are SUPER intense. These LEDs shine through a slit in the camera body, so that you can see them to know what mode you're in, but in a pitch black room you can see them project across a room!

Yes, it has IR mode under camera settings just use that and your good that's my camera

The camera records in infra red at night, it produces it's own illumination from the infra red LEDs on the front. If illumination is low the LEDs only provide enough light to recognise faces at a few meters distance. The unit can apparently record audio but I have not used the function.

There's a sensitivity level you can play around with. At a sensitive setting, my camera picked up dust flying by it in the middle of the night. I think the AC kicked in and blew some dust and the infrared was able to detect it. As long as it detects motion within the range you pick, it will start recording (you have 2 different ranges you can set).

Yes, but the IR LEDs can only illuminate up to about a meter. If you add additional more powerful IR lights, it will see much better. I tried this with a foscam 9821 netcam with IR and the mini cam sees much better with the foscam IR LEDs on.

I have not used those cameras. Looking up the manufacturer specs, they provide nothing about the optics. This IR device is 850nm only.CMVision now makes a device that is dual wavelength. The CMVision IRS324-850940 Combo 850nm & 940nm Wavelength. If one wavelength does not work the other will. The only major concern is if the CCD imaging device is of such poor quality that it dos not work well with these devices all. If you want to save money, buy a single 850nm and 940nm LED from an electronics supplier for a very low cost. Put a battery on them and see in a monitor if the camera sees the lit LED.

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
