I see you've cought the imaging bug too.
Addictive isnt it :lol:
SAC cameras have a good rep.!


I have a SAC 10 3.3Megapixel single shot colour on order and fingers crossed I should have it before Christmas.

They seem to know what they are doing and take an "ID Software" approch to products. I certainly do not mind waiting for a good product as opposed to a rushed dodgy camera.

Later,

Jed.

Jed,
That looks like a fine camera, 3.3 MP is ample field of view.
This "interchangable head" system, is that a way of easily upgrading the CCD chip in the system without ripping the camera apart?

To be honest, its the FOV thats holding me back from the modified toucam pro and DSI pro, From what I can see, when you "magnify" an image by using such a chip, it seems to me that your tracking needs to be A1 or it will show up.

All the same, I think I might modify one of the webcams next year.
