Any CCD based
web cam which uses the NEC 16510 vertical
driver chip or similar (I believe Samsung, Hatachi and
Sony have similar devices) should be able to be modified
in this way. This site contains an example modification
of a vesta (675) however check the sites below for more
information.
Please, if you put information onto the web regarding the
modification of a camera and would be prepared to have
your site listed here, drop me an e-mail Smunch@clara.co.uk
Before
you start please read this page!!!!
(after many
months troubleshooting numerous malfunctioning cameras by
email, its now taking up too much time. If your mod
doesn’t work please DO NOT email me!!! However the
folks on the QCUIAG Yahoo group may well be able to help.
Thanks)
For specific questions or background
information have a look in the QCUIAG archives at
http://qcuiag-archive.technoir.org/
Alternatively if you are looking for a cooled 16 bit camera with very
low read noise you might like to take a look at the
Atik web site.
