New A119SV2 terrible quality night footage.

I took a test movie (~93Mb) today through an open door.
Looks like I can exclude windshield from the list. Yep, outside it's a little bit lighter, but harpeness is the same.

Settings used:
1920х1080P 30fps, 3min, Exp -2/3, WDR off, 50Hz.

What is your Exposure Setting?Whoops, I just saw your exposure setting.
I'm using +0.0 for the winter, I used -1/3 for the summer.
The sun isn't as strong in your area this time of year.
I would suggest you go back to +0.0 and try it our the window again.

Perhaps your Exposure -2/3 is a bit too restrictive letting in the light thus your images appear overly dark.
I'm getting good results so far and I'm using:
Resolution 1920 x 1080p 60fps
Exposure +0.0
WDR On
I go to the YMCA at 5:30AM and it's dark and cold.
Sometimes there is moisture on the outside of the windshield and sometimes condensation inside until the defroster dries it off.
This can obviously have an affect how the dash cam sees the lights.
I'm wondering if the windshield gets warmed up and dry by the defroster you may see some improvement when night driving.

Thank you. I changed it to +0.0 and it's a little bit better now.
I downloaded some sample videos filmed in similar conditions and compared it with mine.
Looks like there is no problems with my dashcam, video quality is similar to others. Thanks again for your help ;)
 
I'm glad you were able to sort things out ok.
I drive weekday mornings at 5:25AM and it’s very dark this time of year.
So I’m looking forward to putting up a winter time video later.
I’m just waiting for a double digit -C temp and lots of snow.
There will be street lights and traffic lights in the 3 minute drive.
It should be a good test for the dash cam.
We'll have some fun with it.
Enjoy your dash cam.
