Lux Color Camera
What is the color of lux camera lens for night use?
The term LUX is a measurement for the amount of illumination on a subject, using the metric scale. It does not really apply to a camera LENS. The illumination does have a COLOR.
I think what you are asking, is, what kind of illumination you you need for using cameras in low, or no, visible light, and / or, what are the specifications. for low light on a camera.
For very low light at night, (for example, moonlight) a camera should have a low LUX rating of .05, or even lower. (normal lighting ratings are usually 1 - 5 LUX) Some cameras have BUILT IN INFRARED illuminators, and they see in TOTAL DARKNESS.
If you are looking for a video security camera, look at this company. That's all they do, and they have many cameras for low light, or no light use.
