Infrared night vision digital camera/camcorder

More photos...
Here are more photos taken with this camera in infrared light and in visible light (fluorescent lighting).  Some objects appear dark in both pictures, but some are dark in visible light but appear light colored under infrared light.

1. Clothing in IR.
2. Same clothing in visible light.
3. Bookshelf in IR.
4. Bookshelf in visible light.

Note:  If you want to take normal-looking photos in visible light, you need to use fluorescent lighting, not incandescent.  An incandescent light bulb actually emits mostly infrared light, so your pictures will look much like the IR pictures. 

Have a look at people's Christmas lights with this camera if it's that time of year, LED lights will appear their actual colors but the old fashioned light bulbs will always appear white regardless of their visible color.
