Hikvision camera settings to reduce glare from car headlights (camera DS-2CD2342WD-I)

[Murfy92]

Hi,

What settings should I adjust to reduce the glare from car headlights during the night?

Is there a good thread that explains in layman's terms what all the video/image settings actually mean?

Please see attachments for the current image/video settings.

Thanks

Hi @Murfy92

To help reduce glare we usually recommend using HLC/WDR or speed up the exposure time (1/100, 1/250, etc...), but both of these settings will likely make the rest of the scene much darker.

@Murfy92 as @Dan says, I use HLC which is very effective in reducing glare from car headlights, the darker image is acceptable for me.
