I really like the Axis network cameras: http://www.axis.com/products/video/camera/index.htm and have used half a dozen of them. They have an embedded (Linux) web server which means that you can always connect to them, the model I use (the 2100, now replaced by the 210) can take interchangeable C/CS lenses, and the image is 640x480. With a zoom lens, we use it to read some gauges and flowmeters. Karl Misselt wrote: > Hi all - I'm looking for a good webcam to remotely monitor analog sensors > in a clean room.
