What do you mean by LUX and how it affects picture quality?

The illumination term LUX is a standard unit to measure a cameras sensitivity to light. The lower the number, the less light required to produce a viewable image. A camera with a LUX of 1 means you can see an image during early evening hours or just before dusk. A camera with 0.5 LUX would give you the ability to see an image in a dimly lit room. A 40Watt light would provide sufficient light for a camera with 2 LUX. With the help of infrared light, cameras can work with 0 LUX, i.e., under total darkness.
