If you have the frame-grabber, I've got the camera for you... Remember TYCO, the slot car racing people? Well, they came out with a $99 B+W camera with NTSC vid out. The idea is kids can hook it up to the family VCR and have a bargain camcorder of sorts (well, it does have a 20' cable) that is not a big loss if it gets demolished during playtime. So check out Toys-R-Us; they might even have a demo out, but from what I understand, it's got better image quality than the QuickCam, and autoexposure to boot.
