Cheap $5 webcam
Visiting the local Kmart this morning I saw their webcams -"JLR-89363" for $5.
Bought one and found the lens just screwed off (like the ol' Philips webcams) and my std 1.25" webcam nosepiece just screwed straight on.
Fired up SharpCap and it recognised it immediately and presented all the controls as being available.
It seems to use YUY2 for 640 x 480 video at 30 fps......
May be of interest to the newbies looking for a cheaper way to get into astro-imaging (solar/lunar/planetary)????
