I talked to a guy at Dalsa about repairing or replacing our old failed camera, he'll research both cameras and get back to me maybe tomorrow to answer my questions. Note that both the cameras have the same model number up to the last digit, L for the failed camera and J for the camera I'm trying to install now. He kept saying how old these cameras are. I couldn't find any listed on eBay or anywhere else, one place listed one as "sold" - that was the only place I could find that listed them at all. ___end___ Tue Apr 7 22:37:27 GMT 2009 MkIV
