After a lot of patience looking on eBay, I found 2 relatively new JVC security camera with Ademco 5 to 50MM lens. Cost for the camera and lens was about $65. I’m happy with the image quality. I feed composite video to an ATI card in the computer and I use webcamxp. As u can see from my image I have to look thru the trees to see the water so I have some back light problems. My next step is to mount the camera outside on my ISS support. I’m hoping to get a better view to the water. So far this scheme has worked well for me. You just have to be patient and keep looking for the right camera.
Good luck with your search.

i am going to look at connecting out old handycam (which is now broke (13 years old, no parts), to my TV capture card and mount that…will give a much better picture…but I will have to have it powered…
