Hello Zackw419.
With IR-cut the material comes with natural colors. As we see the world through our eyes. Without IR-cut everything is more or less overlayed/drowned by/in that typical pinkish glow which is the videoprocessing chain´s representation of IR, invisible to our eyes (from ~700nm up). IR is basically redder than red. Imagine how that would look like. We usually think of being able to imagine the wildest, weirdest things, but here, on both opposite ends of just that simple scale from blue to red, we already fail.
With a documentation device like a dashcam you usually want an IR-cut for the obvious reason of ... natural colors. Because these are part of the overall proof. Who did what and what did who and who´s vehicle and who´s clothing look like.
So you start and usually stay with an IR-cut cam.
But without IR-cut, depending on location and time of day or night and natural or artificial sources in the scene, sometimes coarsely refered to as the "ir-weather", the sensor receives this additional light-energy which leads to shorter shuttertimes and shorter shuttertimes lead to better motionfreezing capabilities of the videodevice which usually means: a possibly nailed license plate where a VIS-only-cam might slip.
With the VIS/IR-combo-cam i can lower the exposure to minus 0,6 up to minus 1,0 compared to the standard VIS-model (lowering the exposure on a fixed-aperture-videodevice usually means shorter shutterspeeds).
If not for very special needs/operations, it doesn´t make sense to just use a standalone IR-cam for dashcam purposes. The latter only makes sense as an addition to an existing VIS-cam.
How´s your anti-Wifi-cam doing?
