Hi mate welcome to the forum.
Iv got that camera.
The more i play with it the better it gets.
Lower the gain to get a crisp picture.
I will say that camera seems to pick up the 940nm almost as well as the 850nm.

thanks for that and all the other friendly replies , i am just beginning to understand what its all about i was given the shopping list from a very kind gentleman from another forum and have been surprised that it was not more demanding , hopefully i wont find the need to improve it all the time

Your on the right track mate.
With the bits you got already you cant go far wrong.
Yes you could have spent £40-£80 more on a camera but honestly i dont think you would gain more then 5-10% more distance and that can be gained with a different Ir set up if needed.
