These lights are across the street, regular bulbs, and they look like they are fading in and out through the camera when they are static.
Why?
Are your cameras mounted outside or are your cameras looking outward through a window?
The camera is trying to adjust both to the cloudiness and the oncoming headlights/blinker. Just too many things it is trying to deal with at once.
It almost looks like the neighbor might have the lights on a dimmer control switch for effect.
The tree line and grass brightness seems to stay the same as the lights dim.
Yeah it definitely looks that way, and I wouldn’t have given it second thought, but since OP said they aren’t, assuming it must be the camera adjusting. Or maybe neighbor is messing with him
The car happened to drive by as I did a recording.
It is like this all the time, even with consistent weather/lighting conditions.
The lights are static, no faders
Video from yesterday without rain. Same thing
If those are LED lights they will fade when viewed with any camera. It s a frequency thing. I have LED lights on my car and when viewed with the camera they constantly flicker. The flicker is not visible to the naked eye but camera picks it up, something to do with the frequency and frames per second on the cameras.
Thanks for the response. Yes, I also have leds on my car and have seen the flickering.
Those lights are incandescent bulbs, and they look like they are slowly fading in and out, which I have never seen until through this camera
Yeah I’ve never seen the “LED effect” do anything like that (not to say it isn’t possible). But in both your videos, there is heavy haze, is it looking through a window or just foggy out? Mine definitely are constantly adjusting when it is foggy especially when it is lower light.
You can see the compression artifacts in the video coming and going at the same time the lights fade out which means the camera sensor is adjusting something.
When I tried out a v3 I found it to have extremely obvious compression effects (blocking, ghosting, etc) especially when it rained, and I’d guess fog has similar effects on it.
Again, could be a combination of light frequency and camera’s FPS. The camera lens and sensors are not even close to what the eye can see.
Another possibility is an electrical load issue or wiring problem.
It’s too uniform across all lights. Looks normal to me but maybe the camera picks it up better?
Which camera model? Do you have another camera you could try, either the same or different model?
