Hello List,
From anyones experience, could anyone please reccomend me a webcamera which has
low noise at low light levels?
I think firewire is the way to go, for example the "iBOT firewire" as it is just a straight AVI data transfer format (no data compression at the camera like USB1.1) (as far as I'm aware) Naturally the compression would cause a problem in terms of noise, unless I'm mistaken.
I'm not sure what the story is with USB2.0, whether it compresses the video stream or not, but I would really like to know this, as firewire webcamera's are virtually impossible to buy in the shops here in Éire...
I also heard from this list that CCD devices are less noisy compared to CMOS...Is that true?
Any information would be greatly helpful and appreciated
I need that low noise solution!
All the best, and Thanks, David
I'm using pd/gem with winxp and 98se (on two diff. machines)
