A system designer can compare the light sensitivity of network cameras from different manufacturers by checking the specified lux values of the cameras. Lux is a unit of measurement for illuminance, indicating how much light is needed for the camera to produce a usable image. Lower lux values indicate better low-light performance. While field testing can also be useful, lux values provide a standardized and quick reference for comparison.
