Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] wish list, case histories

Just looking at a magazine called WEB PAGES MADE EASY.

This has a report on two cheap cameras :-

JAMC@m which dispite the name appears to be a good camera priced at the low end at £89.99

Kodak DC200Plus, this is the one I will be going after as it has a large screen on the back and comes with its own software. £89.99

This would be the same as dollars in the States as we pay pounds sterly at the same rate as you pay dollars.

Regards,

Terry.

Just bought my own fire-extinguisher for use with this list :-)

I have the Mitubishi DX-10, I think. It is horrible as a camera, but
works quite well
as a way to get images into the computer for Web sites, eBay auctions,
etc. Really,
the only major problem is that the 'peephole' viewfinder, for some
reason, is very hard to get
repeatable positioning with, so many of the shots have the 'heads cut
off' sort of
problem. But, it was quite cheap, about $80 on eBay a year ago. I
think it is a
320 x 240 pixel imager. The other problem seems to be that it can't
handle
flickering lights - if fluorescent light is used, the pictures come out
with bad exposure
and color balance. If you also want the same camera to handle family
photos, etc.
then you will definitely need to get something better.
