| Best low light camera I have used is the Extreme CCTV monochrome cameras.
| Check out a shot I just took over the internet from my remote DVR. The
| camera is looking through a front window. You can see the siren in the
upper

| Keep in mind the DVR is set at the lowest resolution, at 1 frame per
second.
