Question:
Some cameras use IR LEDs to provide additional light for night time use. Does this camera have that or does it need additional light to see at night and what is the quality of the picture when used at night?

Expert Reply:
The Hopkins Rear View Camera, # HM60195VA, does not have infrared or LED lights for better night vision on the monitor. In dark places or at night, the image would appear washed and dim.
For a good system that does have night vision, we have the Switch Hitch, # 04928, and the Hindsight, # 67300. Both of these systems use infrared lighting. The image is not as good as broad daylight but it is much better compared to a system with no night vision.
