Sunlight: Avoid direct sun light exposure into the lens. Direct sun
light will damage the image sensor. If sunlight is necessary for your viewing purposes, provide protection for the image sensor.
Lighting: Consider installing your camera faces the same direction
of the light sources. Shooting images with top-down position outdoor or next to the existing light source are good choices. Avoid the light source if it creates a shade that darkens the viewing area.
Moisture: Avoid damp or moist environments whenever you can.
The TV-IP320PI is an IP66 grade water proof camera, and it will work in moist environments. However, rain may affect the picture quality, especially at night, water may reflect the light from the infra-red illumination and degrade picture quality.
