Infra-red bounce from number plates has always been an issue with CCTV Cameras.  Some cameras will allow you to view number plates during daylight hours but as it gets dark and the camera infra-red switches on so the number plate appears as a white rectangular box.

 

Digital Direct Security (DDS) have introduced a new model to their extensive range of cameras which will allow you to view number plates. Their new model KS-848VR (which has a resolution of 540TVL, SONY SuperHAD CCD with SONY DSP together with 8-40mm Auto-Iris Lens) will allow you to view number plates upto 25m away with head-on headlights.
