Morning guys,

Apologies if this has already been covered before, but I couldn't find anything specific on here.

Basically I've been tasked with finding a discreet, but good quality camera that can be mounted above the 60" Plasma tv in the bar I work in. It's gonna be something that stays mounted there, but needs to capture people dancing, so you can see yourself dancing on the screen. Nothing too complicated, just wondering what camera's people use. Didn't know whether to go down the CCTV route( would have to be colour & good quality) or a camcorder.

Any ideas or opinions would be much appreciated.

Thanks.

Do you use Virtual DJ?

No, I'm using Serato Scratch Live.

The pub manager basically decided he wants to connect a camera of some description to a plasma tv via the RCA video input. The plasma screen is behind me, but faces the dancefloor.

Shame you aren't using VDJ as you can add a camera onto that and use it to show guests.
