One last question:

If a spec says the minimum light is about 5 or 6 lux, would IR definitely be needed? My understanding is that 5 lux is like a room with a nightlight, and the street is definitely much brighter. However, I don’t have a good meter to say how bright.

I’m not sure I can answer that one accurately. Sorry.

As far as getting his…

I have the DVR-402 and 702. The 402 is about six years old, and the 702 is three.

In LP, you can get 42 minutes on a disk, 30 in SP, and 17 in HD. The IR light will only work with IR specific cameras. The way the nightshot on the handycams works, is like you stated, it moves the IR filter out of the way and converts the signal from the CCD to…

The newer models that are cheap don’t have the shoe for the IR lights. The HD ones all have the shoe.

And one last question: would an IR light such as that work with a camera not specifically built for IR? I read that the Sony nightshot just removes the IR filter from the lens, so if that isn’t…Read more

Plus, I’m in law school. I want to catch this guy so I can get some practice. And believe me, I will f*ck his life right up. I can get him on at least 3 criminal charges…Read more

We considered these, but then were worried about mounting them inconspicuously and having him simply see it and take it down. He looks like the hunting type too, so he might know what it is.

Have you talked to local authorities about the problem?

Yes I’ve filed police reports each time, and their response is “that sucks, call an investigator”. So I figured investigating on my own is cheaper. I also staked out the car a few times but it won’t get me anywhere when I need to go to court.
