Gergwheel1647545492 Posted October 3, 2005 Report Share Posted October 3, 2005 Go to CVS and get a $30 disposable digital video camera, then go here http://camerahacks.10.forumer.com/viewtopic.php?t=1359 and follow the steps to make the cable. Once you have the cable made, DL this file and extract it http://www.personal.kent.edu/~gwheelan/camera.rar then just follow the readme file. I have the camera but i have not made the cable yet, so i have no idea as to what kind of quality it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex1647545498 Posted October 4, 2005 Report Share Posted October 4, 2005 That's really cool but my camera already takes movies so not gonna bother. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lustalbert Posted October 4, 2005 Report Share Posted October 4, 2005 Kinda designed so you have a thowaway one so you dont hafto take your good camera into an "iffy" location. Also, I belive one of the perks of moding your camera are that you can change the resolution. Max i think is 600x480 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gergwheel1647545492 Posted October 6, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2005 http://www.delawarelibrary.org/support/TT/1.avi here is my first test video with this camera, not too bad for $30 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Akula Posted October 6, 2005 Report Share Posted October 6, 2005 never mind, VLC will play it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akula Posted October 6, 2005 Report Share Posted October 6, 2005 Watch out for this, if you buy the camera with a big red button on it, it is firmware 3.62 and there is no known hack yet. If you get the one with firmware 3.4 it will work like a charm. I just wasted $30 on this because I didn't do enough research. I did find a $5.99 mouse at Staples to get USB cables off of.

morabu Posted October 6, 2005 Report Share Posted October 6, 2005 shit....if you don't have a camcorder already, this looks to be a steal with the new hack! enjoy it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
