I'm looking for suggestions on cameras with a resolution of around 1032 x 778 and firewire interface. We're planning on using this for machine vision inspection with NI Labview. I've found several that are just above a thousand bucks each, do any of you guys know of cheaper sources?
The Imaging Source offers a camera that is somewhat cheaper. Well it's not that cheaper and I don't have any experience with it. I would definitely recommend the Guppy cameras from AVT, I've never had any bad experience with those ones.
The Industrial Camera Advisor on our website is a great resource for finding a camera that matches your desired specifications. The Camera Advisor will also tell you which cameras have been tested with our hardware and are supported. You can access the Camera Advisor at the following location:
