    Anyone want a Ferrari?

    AMD passed those out to their execs when they came out with their 64-bit chip last year. Nice laptop and a good deal at $2K.
  2. Depend on what you're looking for. Color? B&W? Day/Night? Price range?

    Sun with a Rainbow around it

    I hear it can take anywhere from 10 hours to a week before you get sucked into a worm hole. So you might want to give it another try and be more patient. It helps if you stand very still and position your hands open on top of your head as if you have moose antlers.

    Can't; it's past its warranty.

    Oh, that’s just a worm hole to another galaxy.

    The camera is not IR sensitive, so it can't be used at night. I've cleaned the inside and outside of the outer glass and lens. Yes, and focused. The image is much better in low light, but next to worthless in bright sunlight.

    Unlike Rory, I’m not so crazy about the quality of the ProVideo bullet cameras. I have a 3-year-old HEAT camera that produces an image like a Monet painting. It’s actually very “artistic,â€

    Yeah. Skinny bald guy with a round head and pasty white complexion. He sort of looks like a balloon with a string attached.

    Outdoor Day/Night Dome Cookoff

    So, all I need is a 4mm view. Would it be better to get the 4mm fixed or the 4-9mm vari-focal?

    Outdoor Day/Night Dome Cookoff

    The confusion is that for the 4~9mm lens, they say 'Vari-Focal DC Auto Iris'. But for the 4mm, they simply say 'Fixed Lens'. See: http://www.buycctvforless.com/cam_HVD.php

    Outdoor Day/Night Dome Cookoff

    Ok, so what's up with the 4mm on the Nuvico? AI or no AI?

    Outdoor Day/Night Dome Cookoff

    I have several fixed focal length lenses that have an auto iris. I don't know about domes (don't have any yet), but there are plenty of standard CS-type cameras that support AI lenses with a fixed focal length. So why would it be harder to outfit an auto iris on a fixed lens than a vari-focal lens in the Nuvico?

    Outdoor Day/Night Dome Cookoff

    Does anyone know if the fixed 4mm lens packaged with the Nuvico NVCC-HVD has an auto iris? Most of the literature I've seen suggests that only the vari-focal lenses have an auto iris.

    IR Illuminators

    Short answer: no. There's a lens in the IR fixture that filters the light "down to" the IR wavelength.

    Dang! You must’ve been a sight hitchhiking with your head all bashed up. Whoever picked you up must’ve been a saint.
