Match the Light to Your Camera’s Capabilities

Even though additional lighting can significantly improve the performance of your surveillance system in low light, to get the best results you need to properly match lighting to the camera, and place it at the best possible location at the scene. See AXTON’s User Manual for more detailed instructions on how to do this.
