Introduction

Welcome to the world of the Mallincam SDI Camera. Your purchase will provide
you with years of discovery and adventure as you view, record, share, and
broadcast the wonders of the Solar System. The Mallincam SDI is a professional
video camera that can provide broadcast quality live images in the HD-SDI
format along with standard quality video for non-broadcast needs.

The Mallincam SDI camera uses a true HD sensor and SDI Digital output for
unsurpassed image quality. At 2.1 MP sensor, the all Ceramic Panasonic Sensor
use the latest in Technology offered by Panasonic using the new  1/3 Inch 2.1 MP
High Speed Maicovicon MOS sensor making it ideal for planetary, Lunar and
Solar Imaging under live condition on a monitor or through the SDI
uncompressed Digital format for image recording.

This document will guide you in the connection options of the Mallincam SDI to
your computer, along with recommendations on configuring the camera for
specific Solar System objects.  This manual is the work of the MallinCam
Mallincam SDI users before me. I have borrowed their ideas and even some of
their documents and have placed them in the manual so that we have
everything is in one place. Special thanks to

Jack Huerkamp

for all the

preliminary work he has done with this camera.

So thank you for your purchase, and let the adventure begin
