We have 4 of themThat's one cute puppy! looks good in any light
So lower the exposure and increase the gain?I think you're actually starved for gain
that looks better than any nighttime image from a ubuquiti cameraI had this grand plan to walk around with my laptop and Chrome Remote Desktop last night, but I was too tired and went to bed. I looked this morning and ended up with this capture, so not all was lost.
Any idea if I will get any better than this? Or should I keep making some tweaks? (It looks better now that I am posting it, than when I reviewed the footage)

I am trying to get more detail in the faces, which I’m sure isn’t helped by the focus being several 10s of feet behind them. It’s too bad we can’t adjust that.
It looks great during the day. I have a few 2mp cameras in the back yard with the same lighting situation as the location as I was mentioning and even with the Tendelux D20 supplemental lighting, it could use more light at night.
I have a ZE in use that is mounted on the fence on a square pole with same terrible ambient lighting and it does so much better. Yeah, there is a hotspot in the middle, but I can't see the triple lens being too much different. And with the Z4E and ZE combined, there should be a good amount of IR.
I scour eBay on a regular basis for Empiretech cameras. I have never seen a used ZE, and I haven't seen a refurbished ZE on Andy's page either. So, I just purchased one new
Appreciate the heads up, but bad timing for me. I need to work out my network issue first. Don't want to add anymore equipment and have the nut across the street change settings on me or worse. Got to close the door on him first![]()
