Video too dark to see faces

[flyingeagle]

I have a video of someone entering my house but the video is too dark to see the face.  What can I do to enhance the image?

Also how can I get a better picture at night?

Help

You can turn on the night vision... have more lighting in the room.

As for the vid, try and brighten in a third party video editor.

That might work, but often the image ends up noisy, and it doesn't actually help with seeing details.

Adding light, or using nightvision (perhaps augmented with an IR flood) is the best way.

Thanks-so much I  am using night vision.  I now have a motion light on it.  Does anyone know how I can improve the video that was taken to see the intruders face?

Thanks for your reply , I  use night vision,  I did try a video editor but it did not do much.

I was wondering if there are companies out there that specialize in getting details out of video.
