Is it Defective or Just the way it is?
By D12
I purchased a different model lorex 150 foot night vision camera and was amazed at the quality. That camera has beat 60mph winds, snow, and rain without a problem while still producing a clear picture since day one. For that reason I purchased the model LOREX CVC6985U and had nothing but good thoughts on my way outside to install this thing.Thinking ahead I decided to test the camera out before climbing +15 feet in the air and mounting it. That's when the feel good story came to an end. This camera while producing a very nice picture does not recognize black and grey clothing, so it displays those colors as green. I could not believe it so I changed to another black shirt and it once again showed green. I then panned to a black garbage container and it was black, then I panned to a black grill set and it was black. However, I panned back to my black shirt and it showed green. I then went inside and randomly recorded black images around the house all of which looked fine, however, the conclusion was that once my black clothing was recorded they were green which puzzles me. I then unplugged the cable off a surveillance monitor and ran the cable to a hd tv and same deal. Green Green Green shirts and pants. I can only imagine someone installing this camera and not testing it out and end up giving the police the description of a burglar with a green shirt,green hat, and green pants. Maybe I just have a defective model. If that is the case, This review will change to reflect that once a replacement unit is had. Until then ***TEST*** this camera before you climb up the ladder.**Update**Replacement unit was received and the same problem mentioned above occurs. It was told to me that this model Lorex CVC6985U, was not produced with what's called an IR-Cut off filter mechanism. That means the colors will not be accurate and true to life. I wish they would state that on the box as I have and have seen plenty of other Lorex cameras and none of them have this issue. This camera is marketed as Day/night just like the rest and on the box it shows a garden, people in a store, and other outside activities. Nothing however, expresses the fact that black, grey, and other dark colors will display as loud green because the company decided to not include a filter on the lens' of the camera. I have $20 cameras that have this filter. If your a professional and know how to install this filter on the lens(You might void the warranty) this might be a good camera. However, if your one of the many D-I-Y'ers keep looking and if your buying a Lorex make sure the camera has a filter installed stock from the factory.

Some colors are incorrect
By Ethos
I can confirm previous reviewer's observation in regards to colors. Some black, blue or violet closing appear as various levels of green. The picture is good othervise.Night vision is good when objects are close and are at the same distance. One of my cameras is mounted over the entrance and is about 8 feet high. The field of view is pretty level. Night vision is perfect. The other one is mounted about 10 feet high over my driveway. It gets retaining wall in its view, at about 6 feet away. The wall looks very bright but the rest of the driveway is very dark. I suspect it is focusing too much on the wall so the rest just fades out.

Good Camera for a great price
By TechCurity
I install surveillance systems for various clients some residential and some commercial. This camera installs really nice wide view with a good quality picture and infrared. I have bought good bit of these camera and only two of them have gave me any trouble. One got moisture in the inside of the camera, I opened it enough for it to evaporate so I haven't had any trouble. Now the most recent one I order the infrared is going out. Now the customer can't see at night. I hope they can fix it or send me a new one.
