Starting from a position of not having googled for anything, let's see if we can follow a project from original idea right through to total failure.
I have the following tipware (rescued from recycling depot) :
2* camcorders, similar but not same, condition unknown,
1 15inch lcd monitor, burnt hole in inverter board, transformers look intact, it would go if only backlight,
70-300 zoom lens, canon fit.
Set of extension tubes, fit said lens.
And I want a video microscope, 10-20 magnification, plenty of room between the lens and the job, for surface mount work.
I now need to find out exactly how the ccd works, I would like to dispense with composite video, and, talking at the moment through my hat, I suspect I can get a PIC to generate scan signals and sync, and with luck a bit of easy decoding will give me RGB.
Well- wishers and useful tips please post here.
Put-U-downs only post here with valid arguments, otherwise post in trash.
I will post progress as it happens.
