Idea! Cam sample picture database

After looking at alot of ebay CCTV cameras, its impossible to find out the quality of the camera unless you purchase it & see for yourself.

Fuzzy up close image (jagged lines)

Im running version 1.21.3 of the LiveCD, since version 1.22 of LiveCD doesn't work by default with my DVR card. (BT878 chipset) Not sure whats up with that.

Currently on my 1.21.3 install whenever someone walks up close to the camera its all fuzzy with jagged lines.

Any suggestions?
