Hi all,
i am thinking of modifying my toucam for long exposure shots.
What i need is an ICX098BQ replacement sensor, but being new to this type of thing (also to the country) i have no idea as to any stores (online or other) that will sort me out with one.
Don't want to go down the ebay 'lotto' if i can help it (long story, don't want to take about it:whistle::D)
Any help would be gratefully welcome.
All the best.............

They may be able to help with the sourcing the sensor,



And also a link for the exposure mods- pictures and steps;
