Jeff ------------------- Well, my Canon HV20 does a great job as a webcam, though it is WAY more than $150. If you look at the specs of various video cams, just make sure they have a Firewire output. Few (if any) will call it Firewire, but look for reference to IEEE 1394 interface, and it will most likely work.
