As far as Ubiquiti cameras, I only have the F4-Pro so can't comment on the
G5.
At night, IR mode is a mixed bag. People and critte
The only problems with that camera are 1)Effectively no sun in this
location, 2)No LTE available there, 3)No IR mode, and 4)The spotlight

Some people get a powerful add-on IR illuminator, that could also let you
choose the wavelength to make sure it's not visible.

I might, but the built-in illuminator goes an advertised 82 feet, which
is a bit farther than I need. I've seen comparisons between the G5
cameras and the G4s and G3s, and the G5 is noticeably sharper; even in IR.
