RCA CKC020 video camera Webcam Review Index || Webcam Setup ||  FTP Setup ||  FAQ

RCA, CKC 020 video camera, Purchased November 17, 1984, $850 One of the first home video cameras that could be purchased for under $2000. This is a fair camera, but a bit fuzzy compared to currently available web cameras. It's complicated to set up as a webcam and not for the faint of heart. I have actually had several people contact me asking how to hook one up as a webcam. They had either inherited one or found it on Ebay. Pluses Cheap if you already have the camera and video capture card Fair quality image Mostly automatic internal controls Minuses Requires a video capture card Complex to make work unless you are good at working on computers Not good for low light conditions Requires modification of cable to connect to your computer Pinout for RCA CKC 020 camera plug Click for enlargements
