Cheap moonlight network cameras?
Hello -
I'm looking for a cheapish network camera with some ability to see landscapes under moonlight or even starlight. The hills I want to see are kilometres away, so IR illumination won't help. 8 years ago I used Phillips Toucam USB webcams with CCD sensors for this task, and they were able to see quite well in moonlight, particularly when I averaged tens of frames to reduce noise. On the other hand, I have found USB cameras in general to be too unreliable for unattended operation, so I'm looking for a network camera with similar abilities. I've tried several low-end network cameras from companies such as Axis (205, 206, 207), Panasonic (111-something) and Compro (IP70), and none have the low-light ability of a 8-year-old CCD-based Toucam. Can anyone recommend a lowish-priced network camera that can see in moonlight? |
