Default RE: IAF video planes

Wingo footage delayed by wind...[:-]
I did test fire that CCD camera I bought recently and it works great. I didnt know at the time but the specs were incorrect for this camera and it has a 12mm lens which means something like a 17 degree field of view but acts like a 5X zoom. I actually was interested in something like this so its not a problem. Chuck, the guy that sells them, emailed me with this info and offered to either exchange the cam I have or make me a very good deal on the proper camera if I so choose. He also has the wiring setups for these cameras (the harness plug is the same as the CX-161 cams by the way) in stock. They work great with the BlackwidowAV systems. I just unplugged the CX-161 and plugged in the 55012 and it works fine. The cameras he has with the standard 53 degree field of view lens is the 55029 (2.9mm lens).
PM me if you would like his email address or you can find it here:

That particular camera is the narrow view 12mm lens version which I bought.
He says he has a grip of BOTH cameras in stock though along with the wiring harnesses and can do discounts based on volume. You need to purchase a wiring harness as the cameras do not include one. He is very easy to work with.
I would check these out!
