That's a big improvement over the pic posted from the 16th.
What adjustments were made?
Hey
@Chuck T I dial in ( and recommend everyone does the same) each camera to the specific FOV, target goals, environment and location therefore rather than a one size fits all its more custom to each. Don't use Auto. With that said, in this case there was a lot of work needed in terms of Picture, Codec, IR, Exposure and IVS rule related, noise reduction tweaks that I went though for day & night on both the 5831 & 5842 to improve overall image quality.
I have to point out again that for a successful implementation/deployment of any cam / system its critical to start with the right location that balances any restrictions (of your chosen / available location) vs the critical need for a well positioned FOV that enables (through careful configuration) output captures providing easily identifiable targets and associated details. Therefore installs that are too high, too low, pointed directly at sunlight, suffer from IR splash back from walls, obstacles in the way of target etc are problematic BUT can be adjusted for in most cases. Just make sure to plan ahead and keep in mind expansion of your system as you will absolutely want/need to do this. This also leads to more successful selection of camera(s) as you can plan for cross cam coverage (redundancy + multi angle caps of an area as I always recommend) and ensures that if you have any special requirements (whether thats application related like ANPR, Face Recognition etc OR environmental factors such as tough angles/completely dark areas) that you cater accordingly with install and chosen cameras that compliment each other while delivering the desired end result. One thing to definitely keep in mind with darker FOV's or no light situations is the use of bullet cams vs turrets because you will have the increased IR capabilities (4 LED's instead of 2) + the ability to dial in near vs far IR strength as I've demonstrated before which is key. Also remember that regardless of camera sensor, SOC / optic pairing, that light in an FOV is critical but can also compliment your coverage of an area by affording you the ability to run a cam in color and a cam (multi angle / cross coverage) in B&W (IR) so you end up with the best of both worlds, usable Face ID + color details.
HTH and as always, if anyone needs help dialing in, just reach out
