Cat + darkness + night vision + Infrared video

Our cat goes crazzy in the middle of the night, shot in complete darkness using Sony HVL - IRH2 infared light. A black cat at night becomes totally visible under infared light, without the IR light I couln't see him when he was a couple of feet away.

so can you just buy infrared lights anywhere for videocameras, like are they commonly available.

[JCVdude]

You should be able to. My equipment is Sony so I can't answer about other equipment. I guess what I would recommend is you check with your camera brand or a camera store.

[BluEMSpeed]

hey is the camera like super high quality?

[JCVdude]

Nope, it was a Sony TRV-170. Actually pretty old.

[SpartanMan1400]

is that like an attatchment

[JCVdude]

Yes it an infrared light attachment.

Lol.. maybe you should do a bit of research into infrared before you make yourself look like a retard :)

The use of infrared light and night vision devices should not be confused with thermal imaging which creates images based on differences in surface temperature by detecting infrared radiation (heat) that emanates from objects and their surrounding environment

Sorry but this is infra red the one with colour is a ''heat camera''. My camera also has IR light and it costs around 900 euro's it's called IR night vision because it has IR lights and only camera's can spot them.

some people are stupid infrared doesn't just mean heat. its light with a wave length longer that 750 nano meters and less than 1000 nano meters. This IS shot with infrared light. probably around 850 NM.

Cats can't see in complete darkness. However, they can see with only about 15% of the light humans need to see. Cats have more sensitive hearing than dogs, and their sense of smell is only slightly less than that of dogs. The kitten here obviously knew it was being watched by its owner.

Jellicle cats come out tonight.....

[Chonecom]

Ill buy this camera from you.

[kennnmoran1]

@Bakb0ne LOL..maybe you should learn to speak with manners huh? Maybe the person was wrong but no need to be such a jerk :) But then again i bet it makes you feel so cool to use such words and tone :L ah people these days
