    Yea, I didnt type that very well. I get it on the light buckets, i have an understanding of how. its the "how much do i need" that im working on. And your posts on the importance of MP and LPR cam settings selection is are very helpful.

    So i would think the larger sensor would gather more light while a smaller sensor would be able to collect less light but faster, reducing blur. I do get that higher MP cameras basically suck at night, and thats me looking to my left to see my 2MP, 4MP and 5MP cameras all mounted together...

    Setup advice and questions

    So I am intending on reading up on Blue Iris and what its capable of but didn't know about it until i searched through here and my brain can only take so much of one subject in a day. In Blue Iris are you able to retain the features of the cameras connected? I would imagine there has to be some...
