Installed cam in garage but getting a black Pic with white blur around it. Is this normal?
Black pic with white blur around it
Is there anything close to the front of the camera that could be reflecting the IR light? A night vision blur is often associated with things like a white enclosure that has edges that extend beyond the lens. The IR light reflects back into the lens, and you get a cloudy white blur.
As far as being a black pic, the IR lights are rated to 30 feet (9m), but in reality only illuminate well about 20 ft. (in my experience). How large is your garage?
After a few posts you will be authorized to upload pics – when we see one, we may be able to guess better.

@Elaleman, I have increased your forum trust level, so you may now post a photo of what you’re seeing from that camera. That should help diagnose what’s wrong.

Did you pull the plastic cover?

Spider web/Cobwebs, I’ve seen it on my cams at nite and occasionally have to give them a burst of canned air duster to clean them off.
Hope it helps you.
