The resolution on the camera is low and it only has a resolution of 640×480 which is low by today’s standards. The compatibility will need the driver or adapter for the operating system. Note that over time the lenses do degrade so take this into account with the older cameras.

The image quality on the camera most imes is still very good. There is no autofocus and musch like the old camera you will need to manual adjust the camera focus. The camera was well known for long focus use. Many users have used the camera as a base and to change the CCD in the camera and upgraded this at home with some technical skills.

Finally there have also been many who have used the camera for useful in projects using platforms like OpenCV or ROS (Robot Operating System). You will need to search for these online. Lastly also see the article that we wrote on the avc1 codec as well.
