I have it setup so its on an angle therefore the IR does not reflect back, I could see the numberplates of my car and our van VERY VERY clearly from approx a 5 meter distance 
 
when somebody gets on the path, the security light lights up therefore the quality should increase much more

Get yourself an Avigilon 16MP Camera

think they also do a 29MP camera now too. 
 
Deep pockets for them though

Picture taken from mine. The funny bit is where he points up to the camera obviously going "Sh*t we're on camera"

The quality is not as good as my external dome camera but its wireless which is handy

It will be very interesting to see what the new camera with the Pi can do. At 5mp. If it can encode on the fly it could be a very cheap way of getting a high def web cam.
