FPV Cam needed, recommendations please
« on: January 15, 2012, 04:09:03 PM »
Hi all.

My FPV cam is bust. I don't want to use my GoPro as FPV cam because it doesn't cope well with dark-->light transitions very well.

What are you using, how much was it, and how do you rate it?

Cheers

Chris

I'm using an SN777 - works really well for me, not as many lines as some of the better cams on the market - but a fantastic intermediary camera that didn't break the bank (too much).

It does pretty well in low light conditions and works on 5v.

About £81 - a bit steep, but was worth it for me.

Looking at specs of the sony compared to my SN777, - yours has more lines, OSD config, better low-light performance and is cheaper (by far) compared to what I paid. I'd go with the WDR if I were to buy another cam :)
