CAMCORDERS ARE GENERALLY DESIGNED for well-lit scenes, using the light to create a quality color image for recording. To ensure that the image is seen by the camera in a similar way to our eyes, only the portion of the light spectrum that is visible to our eyes is processed. Infrared light falls just below red on the light spectrum, making up the wavelengths from about 750 to 1500 nanometers (nm). This light cannot be seen by human eyes, but it can easily be seen by the charge-coupled device (CCD) imaging system in the camera, allowing it to be used as a night vision viewer.
