Well.... I was given the camera for free with the understanding it didn't
work at all. Once I did get it working, it didn't work all that well. The
viewfinder was starting to go bad, and the tape door lock was broken (duct
tape...)
I think I still have the camera part somewhere in a box. I figured that it
wasn't worth trying to fix the 'second half' of it. From what I remember,
the camera had standard RCA connections, so it would be good for a
video-capture camera.
Talking about video capture.... and video standards... On my video card,
there's three plugs: VGA, composite, and S-Video. What is S-video? my
video card didn't have a manual with it, so....
