Webcams

[scherzo]

I went away a few weeks ago and just used my old 640x480 Logitech webcam.

No pan and tilt... Just a fixed picture. I set it up pointing to one of my anemones where there is always alot of action. That way I could just watch the fish during feeding time (automated)

I also just used Skype and set it to auto answer. That way my webcam isn't always broadcasting.

As for glare issues, I don't know what your room setup is like so you'll have to try it once you get your camera. I didn't have any room lights on and minimal sunlight so I did not have any glare (plus my lights are on from 4pm-12am).

You'll just have to test your camera once you get it.
