You might like to consider the one I bought from Henry's for the nursery
(can't remember the model, but I posted about it before). It's colour where
there's enough ambient light, otherwide B&W and it has automatic IR
illumination. They do another one that switches to B&W when the light
level
drops but this produces a 'combined' colour and B&W image. Very good it
is,
too.
