[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by Kyle S. £30? It's a PAL camera than, is see. These extra 100 lines of resolution do make a difference compared to NTSC. I take it that you are running the camera with batteries, since you don't seem to get any track power dropouts? [/quote] I suppose it must be PAL as it runs straight into the laptop with a Belkin USB VideoBus II (Analogue to digital convertor?). The camera is intended to run on a 9v PP3 battery but I purchased a battery clip that takes 6 x AA 1.5v batteries complete with the PP3 connector on it. I found the 9v battery lost performance very early in it's life. Obviously there is the room to do this with OO gauge. Gauges/scales smaller than HO would struggle for room. On our latest layout the receiver will be placed higher up and in the center of the layout giving the best reception. I assume the camera will work at several hundred metres, but just to be sure of the best reception we're doing all we can to help it.
