PST imaging

Hi Everyone

I'm just curious to know whether the focusing problem which is present with the new philips 900nc webcam is also prevalent in the 840 (or older)Toucams?
Also in terms of solar photography, which one out of a DMK, Toucam or DSLR would you think gives the best results (Cheaper DMK and DSLR Ofcourse) ?

I have given up on trying to focus my 900nc and looking for alternatives...

Cheers

Well Mike it is exactly what it sounds like. No matter how much ive tried, i just can focus the solar disc using this webcam and ive noticed alot of people with a similar problem.

I could be wrong but doesn't using a Barlow get rid of the focusing problem?
