sabotage 0 Posted March 27, 2008 Our church built a special hypoallergenic room for my father, and we want to install a flat panel tv on the wall, and a camera in the ceiling in the main auditorium so that he can view the speaker. The camera would preferably connect directly to the tv. I know this is more of a security forum, but I don't know where else to ask. My first thought was a regular camcorder - but some of those turn off automatically if your not actually recording to tape and it would seem impractical for adjusting zoom. Maybe a fixed focused color security camera would be better? Please help- thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CameraGimp 0 Posted March 28, 2008 Wiring a CCTV camera to a television is easy as long as the television has a composite video input. The only thing that may cause you a problem is sound. Most CCTV cameras do not have microphones so you may have to set something else up for that. There are cameras that capture sound but the ones I've come across have low end microphones and so may not be very good for long term listening. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
