Overall, different security cameras have varying features and capabilities. The infrared LEDs are the first step for a security camera to see in the darkness. So, you have to ensure they are powerful enough. But in case you notice the feature has very poor performance, you can provide some lighting in the area. However, avoid putting the lighting directly to the camera, or too close to prevent the instance of glare. Another thing, don’t mount the camera too high off the ground as the night vision sensors also have their maximum distance range.
