Re: Pinhole B&W camera probs

["Bob Noble" <bnoble@xxxxxxxxx>]

That lux rating is for use with light. With IR illumination, it doesn't come
into effect.

The ir will only work in black and white mode, as in color, there is an ir
filter in place.
There may also be a setting in the camera software that puts the camera in
low light mode, which may remove the ir filter that is used in color mode.
You may also need to go in the camera's setting and adjust the brightness
control.

Dig deeper.
