    Great info! I've put some on my Christmas list. Hopefully my kids will decide on that one.😁

    I am thinking of getting one of these with the cabled camera to mount inside the O Gauge Heljan Class 60 to give a view of the engineer/drivers view on my layouts which would be my small Hermes Road layout and then my O Gauge Garden Layout. I want to achieve something like the cabview on Train Simulator Classic if that makes sense. Great video and thanks for this.

    Dear Steve, don’t remember if I saw your first vid on these cameras. The possibility to see several angles at the same time is definitely a great idea and improvement. Also like that option where you wired the front camera on the locomotive from the flatbed car. That kind of flexibility makes this system stand out. Especially when folks wanna disguise whatever camera to get even more realistic looking pictures. Cheerio

    I actually have two of this cameras, but 1st gen. I stopped using them due to other things. Watching your video made me think of them, but I wonder if a software update would be enough to improve the performance of gen 1 cams. I will have to get to ChooChoo and check. Thank you for a wonderful video. Very informative and fun.

    but... How does one capture video to a file? This was the biggest flaw when I looked at CCV cameras a year ago. They proposed some freeware video capture software which did not work. Has anything changed?

      Yeah, you have to use some kind of capture software or do what I did and just record the screen. You can use a higher resolution and maximize the video to fill the screen and then just record the screen. That method works on a tablet or phone as well.

    I don't know if it's focus or resolution, but the videos are still not very sharp.

    • @StevesTrains
      @StevesTrains  12 днів тому

      I wasn’t at the highest resolution and the cameras have a set depth of field, so you have to decide where you want your focus point to be. Because you are getting a real time feed to get WiFi, you can’t do as high a resolution as you can do with a camera recording to an SD card. I was streaming three cameras at once using my iPad as a hotspot, so I didn’t push the resolution as high as it will go.

    so steve just wondering I notice you are always on n scale I guess you have no room for any other scale what is it about n scale that attracts people to that particular scale other than space

    • @StevesTrains

      I do have an HO scale switching layout with videos on building that several years ago. I’ll also be building a small O gauge switching layout soon. I have a couple videos on a 5x10 foot HO layout I built many years ago as well. That one is gone because it became my sons percussion room, and I’m pretty much relegated to the garage and still want to keep both cars in there, so my projects are mostly smaller ones thus the frequency of N scale projects.

    Do they make these cameras for G scale?

    • @StevesTrains
      @StevesTrains  11 днів тому

      You can use them in any scale. You can either just stick them on the front of your locomotive or try to install them on the interior with a hole for the lens to look through.
