andymac Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 Hi, My camera at the front door of my house gives a rubbish image. It is a cheap IR thing which i used at my old house with no problems. Now the image is just like a whitewash (see attached) Any ideas? (there is a garage door immediately to the right of the image and a car bonnet immediately to the left) could it be the reflection from the ir's?) Thanks Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

camerabloke Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 from an external light source. ie sun. try putting a makeshift cover over it to try and block some of the light and if that works, you will have to move it away from the light Eucam Security Systems 0845 4630 746 www.eucam.co.uk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
