Your knowledge of security cameras is obviously pretty deep. However, the one used in Shady's isn't that advanced. It's about as cheap as it gets and it's a closed circuit unit. Not to mention Lowery's white shirt looked exactly the same in the video and the picture. Also, the dark kicking figure is not even close to 6'5 240lbs.

Nah, I just know cameras in general. Here's a 4 pack of the cameras most bars would use for $180. Note the ring of LED's on the front. If you're really bored, point a TV remote control at any phone or digital camera while pushing one of the buttons, you should be able to see the LED on the screen. Your camera has an IR cut filter over the CCD, but enough gets through to show up.

Two images about 6 years ago with a Sony F828. One in NightShot mode and a Hoya R72 visible light cut (IR pass) filter, the other is normal. Both straight out of camera, ,no edits. I experimented a LOT with infrared portraiture back then, it can be highly unpredictable. Notice how SOME, but not all of the black fabric turns white?

To me, this is one of the points that the BRPD and local news people missed. Different types of cameras, completely different lighting situation. It's the shitty phone video footage that we both question. Is it really JJ? I doubt it, but NOT because of the color of his shirt.
