Will a brighter camera show me a face at the gate?

Not always. A good night camera gives you a clear, usable picture of the area. It isn't a promise to identify a face or a number plate at any distance.

Does digital zoom count as optical zoom?

No. Digital zoom just enlarges the picture you already have. Optical zoom uses the lens to get closer. The Reolink RLC-843A has 5x optical zoom. The VIGI C540S doesn't.

How do I ask for a camera plan?

Tell us the property, how many cameras and what you want to see. We'll reply with a plan.

WHY COLOURPRO FOR RURAL PROPERTIES?

A rural yard after dark isn't a suburban street under a lamp. Infrared gives a black-and-white picture. A spotlight or hybrid light adds colour only while the light is on. ColourPro uses a large sensor and an F1.0 lens to keep the picture in colour in low light.

It still looks like night. You get a clearer, more useful picture of the yard, not a daytime scene, and not a promise to identify someone at any distance.

Infrared, light-assisted colour and ColourPro: three different pictures.
