Ok, thanks.  I was afraid of that.  If I go the route of the camera cape,
and use the Aptina or OmniVision camera instead of composite video, I'll
need about 15ft of cable in between the beaglebone and camera.  This will
be mounted on a noisy machine... will a shielded cable be enough protection
for that kind of length?  I'm sure it's hard to guess without knowing the
application, but it's a concern that I have, which is why I thought just
accepting composite video would be the easiest.
