Looks pretty good Pete, getting my heart set on one of these cameras now.

Thanks Paul. Overall I'm pretty happy with the Point Grey. Noise supression could be a little better, and I think I mentioned the bandwidth....

350 frames = 2 Gig of data. Clouds rolling here now, but hope to try it with the AP130 and single shot framing filling the sensor. (i.e. no mosaic). I did want to try some extreme FL images...but the CCD cover slip seriously needs cleaning, Point Grey have been somewhat useless on this

Another great result, Peter

Ta Matt. Again seeing could have been better....but what can you do..

[Paul Haese]

Still undecided between the 2.8 and the 6mp cameras. I am leaning more towards the 2.8 as I can still do small mosaics, it costs less and higher frame rate.

There might be better alternatives soon...

[Paul Haese]

Hmmm yes true but it depends on how long I want to wait.
