Negative EV correction means shorter exposures and/or lower ISO values. Both are good for low light image quality (better motion blur, less noise and highlight clipping).

Hello Nutsey.
I recognize your work and effort to improve the camera image, so please understand
my opinion as constructive criticism, not as a complaint or a bad intention,
you do what you think is better.
At night as much as during the day the image quality
It is always important and very required, but at night
it is necessary to have a different balance of the day.
This is because at night the importance of quality decreases
proportionately to the need to see something.
What I mean is, if I can't see something, it's much worse than seeing very little with high quality,
so I'd choose a low quality in benefit of not having such a dark image where almost half
doesn't even appear.
In your night video indeed the quality is good, but only where there is a large amount of light,
everything else becomes "invisible" and any detail on the opposite road such as objects etc.
not even poor quality will be recorded.
Imagine surveillance of a house, it is better a low quality recording and even noisy where what happens
is visible, than a high quality image where no one knows what actually happened,
because it is very dark and there is no information at all.
Maybe you can find a better balance for the night video.
This is just my opinion, because I think that at night the priorities are different from the day about quality,
I also don't know if the camera can make all these compensations.
But I appreciate your work, and when you're done I'd like to test the V4.
Any more videos please post it,, is always good to see the evolution of your work.
Regards
Roturbo.
