That was very thorough and lots of work I'm sure. Great job and really appreciate the comparisons to the other cams. It's a very impressive camera. And anyone that wants this should buy it from you!
Very clear "IR pollution" in the night too, like purple trees and funny looking light from eg. car signals. Yet, it is better to see colors oddly if you see more. Seems nice!
Although most people would complain about the pink effect during daytime, I think it looks cool as hell and could be used to film vaporwave-style footage. Also the crappy video feed at 7:29 is PERFECT for achieving the VHS effect without using filter editing software
Nice video, just bought the RH-55 from your site to use it in the runcam thumb.... what lens can I get with ir filtering for the night eagle? is this camera 1000TVL or 1500TVL ? in the official runcam site it says 1500 but in some places it says 1000
Any "M12" size lens will mount to the Night Eagle 3 for you to experiment with. The TVL of the camera sensor I am not 100% sure on. Regardless, remember that analog broadcast is only ~720 horizontal lines, so the camera will over-sample for broadcast regardless.
Hey Team Legit! I was just the other day wondering how you guys are doing as I hadn't see you in a while. I hope all is well and you have plenty of great flights ahead,. All the best guys ;-)
Thank you a lot for this demonstration i just discovered in your channel. One question: i see that there is under the option "EXPOSURE", three "SHUTTER" modes for this camera: "AUTO", "MANUAL" and "FLICKER". Could you elaborate a bit more on the "MANUAL" one please (you were speaking only about the "AUTO" and "FLICKER", if i do not mistake myself)! Thank you in advance for this complement. Great job, anyway! Regards.
@@FPVTeamLegit , thank you for your reply.... I am curious to know, if it is the case, if it would be possible to constrain the shutter speed at another rate, like for instance 1/25th.... Just thought for food...
I really appreciate you posting this video! Thanks! So, it doesn't damage this camera to be hit with full sunlight? It just looks really bad? Is there an IR filter that could possibly be retrofit over this camera, or do you have to have lenses for this? I'd love to make both night vision goggles and a decent day/night drone with this.
As far as I know, there is no risk to using the camera in daylight. The IR filters in this video are sourced from Amazon. It might be possible to epoxy a filter onto the rear of the lens rather than fit it over the front, but you're doing the exploring there ;)
Hmmmm. I’m looking for an economical way to turn my traxxas XRT into FPV so I can chase deer off my property from the comfort of my couch. I have a dji mini 3 pro with RC controller, and also have the dji goggles 2. Is either the RC or goggles 2 able to connect to this night cam? Sorry for noob questions, RC vet, but just a fpv noob.
the reason to get an expensive star light camera is to fly both night and day without adding something or access to osd menu all the time, if it output everything in pinkish, you can buy a cheap CCD and remove the hotmirror in lens for full spectrum vision
A eletrically removable filter, would add weight. Not everyone wants to compromise on night performance for daylight performance, when buying a night camera specifically.
@@heyarno you right, it will add weight. I did one experiment by removing caddx ANT's ir filter and compare it with foxeer CAT3. still the night specific camera do better. somehow ANT without IR filter give extra clarity in night also it improve a lot in shade when fly indoor, the color was off by a bit but overall looks better.
Excellent news, I've been waiting so long for this. You have no idea how happy this makes me 😁👍
Glad to hear it. Us too!

Thanks, Pat!
Depending on lag, this might be a good option to put in digital night vision tubes
I didn't do a measured lag test, but observed no noticeable lag in use.
pvs-69 uses these.
Runcam should've included a snug fitting slide on IR filter with it.
We're going to see what we can come up with ;)
I wonder if there is a lense upgrade to this camera that could produce

I believe that is to manually constrain the shutter speed to a specific duration such as 1/60th, but I'm not 100% sure on that.

Nice!!! Great INFO!!!
Curious to see how it stacks up against the foxeer cat

Can you do a comparison between the night eagle 3 vs foxeer cat 3?
Why don't they strip away the bayer filter?

Which dvr was this recorded on?
Id put that on my airwolf
Any suggestions for an IR block lens?
Hey Eddy--Any of the Phoenix lenses will work well as an IR-Blocked Night Eagle 3 Lens: team-legit.com/search.asp?keyword=phoenix+lens&search=
it is important to note that Los Angeles has tons of light polution so normal moon light wont be as colorful
Yeah its rough in a small town in the woods. Mostly dark static. You need an ir light to make good use of it
Poor man's NVG
Can you say nestolgia.
Sure can!
