Hi all. I just finished an installation of 4 ip cameras HFW3541 . The cameras are not working yet because we are waiting for the electricity. But the problem is that my client install these up and down lights and i dont know how the cameras were react at this directly light. Any suggestions or any same situation? I attached some pictures
Light too close 5o the camera.

Oh boy. That is why you always test rig them both day and night before installing!
At this point the options are to block the top of the light, change the light fixture, or move the camera.

Yeah the lights are definitely going to wash out the image!

IMO, the quickest & easiest thing to do would be to remove the top bulbs if possible; if not, then block the tops with something heat resistant and fireproof (EDIT: and opaque, obviously) , just to see how they look before going to the trouble of replacing the fixtures.

I did something similar for a light in my back yard. Took out a piece of glass and spray painted it black. Worked perfectly!
