Its going to be an outdoors camera with a wide-angle, medium distance shot of a landscape. The resolution should be pretty good. Does anyone have experience/advice of a solution which exceeds your off-the-shelf Creative Webcam type thing in terms of camera makes and models as well as software to provide a 2 frames a minute of good resolution. Ability for remote-control of the camera could also be an advantage. Perhaps you've found the off-the-shelf multimedia camera solutions to be adequate ? Please let me know of your experiences.
