Hi Phil!
Try emailing Loomberah (Gordon Garradd) , they use an all sky camera out at Siding Spring, he may know something about it!
OR...try ASV Meteor Section, im sure they'll point you in the right direction!
Cheers!

Hi, I’m using GStar in normal security camera enclosure with 8mm F0.95 lens. Those waterproof enclosures made from extruded aluminium are available from eBay for about $50. Most of dome enclosures are designed for newer and smaller cameras that use 10mm lenses. GStar is CS lens camera and I doubt it will fit in dome enclosure. It also generates quite a bit of heat and that may be a problem in such a small enclosure.
