Both cameras are default setting just 2 different angles Is there something wrong with the camera? It’s so gray and fuzzy looking I can lower the brightness but it gets too dark and during day its bad

Honestly I have no idea. It drove me crazy when it did it. It would do it only a handful of times. I ended up having other issues with the camera and sold it.

I had one that looked like that when I first set them up. Well turns out I left the plastic covering on the lens lol. Much better picture. Could that of happened? Or maybe it’s dirty?

Do you have a protective cover on it?

@beseem I do on mine and it’s blurry too
by (190 points)
@crownwork you need to move the protective cover back a little. Same thing happened on mine. Move it back so the “lip” of the cover is flush with the camera.

@beseem no

I noticed that too when I have night vision turned on. I ended up turning ON my porch lights and turned OFF the night vision and poof, a decent picture. If you don’t have porch lights, might invest in Arlo light, or some type of device that gives off a little light. They don’t need much light to show a good picture at night.
