TP603 CMOS 1/2″ 3MP Camera
The TP603 is a low cost alternative for replacing older cameras that have reached the end of their service life.
This camera has a 1/2″ CMOS sensor, which is the same size as many older cameras. This allows for a direct upgrade of camera while using the same c-mount adaptor (0.5×).
It also has a USB2 data connection to maintain compatibility with older computers.
This is not an old camera – it features a good quality 3MP sensor (MT9T001) and reasonable frame rates (8FPS at 2048 × 1536, 22 at 1024 × 768
43 at 680 × 510).
