Define “useful”. This is not a security application so we don’t need
to be able to read license plates. Don’t you guys ever have customers
ask you what the view looks like from up there? My response is
usually ‘why don’t you climb with me and take a look’. I was thinking
a camera would give them the “gee that is neat” view and the
occasional check of the weather. The problem is that I don’t know
what the image would look like with a $250 camera vs a $1500 camera.
Or is more $ required? Just wondering what others have done.
EverFocus has a 2 MP 20x optical zoom H.264 speed dome camera EPN4220
for ~$1,550. Wondering what that would look like.
Oh. Its 24VAC. Yuk. Are all these type cameras going to be AC? 30W
and 10/100. So I guess I could do a passive POE with custom injectors
at each end. Not horrible.

Seriously?� That would require a serious zoom/telephoto lens to get
you any kind of decent resolution. I don't know anything off the top
of my head that would be useful at a half mile.

What kind of distance are you talking about?� Critical issue if
you wanted IR, because there are serious limitations on how far
you will get decent video with IR (no greater than 100', and that
might be a stretch).� But the distance would dictate what kind
of magnification/lenses are required.
