i was looking at this...

cheap, prob 2 cheap, and u need a vid camera, but the resilution is good, does wide angle, and doesnt use a crappy quality sd card

I've never bought from an Aussie off Trademe before, are they trustworthy?

Can't help myself but: The SD method of storing video is pretty good, that and being a solid state solution makes it hard to beat when comparing against a fragile video tape system.

The camera specs state 380 line resolution. That's equiv to just above standard VHS quality. Below Super VHS, Below miniDV. Pretty sure modern DVR using SD card storage can deliver similar quality.

really? i know nothing about it apart from resolution. the one thing i nothiced about the sd cams is that they pixelate under dark or busy conditions... eg going 60ks though a forest all the trees turn to sqares. could just be a crappy camera though. all i know is those atc3k cameras are shit

think ill be recording to a video camera with a hard drive. sd cards arent too bad if you get a good one.

That'll be the changes in brightness and contrast, 2 things ccd or cmos sensors don't handle well. The cheaper the camera the worse the effect of bright lights and dark shadows. Trick circuitry like auto gain control etc tries to average this out. Then comes along video compression. The cheap cameras avoid buffering and have silly high compression levels and this is what reduces the dark trees into fragmented artifacts.
