Review on Longruner Day & Night Vision Camera For Raspberry Pi: 1080P HD Video With 5MP OV5647 Sensor - Perfect For RPi 4, 3B+, 2B, Zero W & More! by Wayne Gilbert

Revainrating 4 out of 5

IR LEDs stay on all the time, other than that, good camera!

I needed this camera to take night pictures in a remote location that is powered by solar / battery. I would have given 5 stars as the day or night picture quality is excellent, but the fact that the ir LEDs stayed on all the time (when it was dark) was a problem. In most instances, this wouldn't matter, but where power is tight, this was an issue. I ended up addition additional circuitry to turn the LEDs on, then take a picture, then turn them off. This worked out well.

Pros
