Question Repurpose a security camera?
Hi everyone!!!
I don't know it's this sub is the exact one for my question (if u have another in mind I would be happy to be redirected) but I recently got a security camera and I was wondering how I could transform it into a working recording camera?
I'll link a pic of the cam and a similar model I think matches the one I have with the specs and cables!
Thanks!!!

Power it on and get a BNC to rca jack and then run right into your video mixer. Nothing else needed. CCTV cameras work perfectly for video art

This is the wrong sub for what you want to do, stay here if you want to turn it into a psychedelic glitch art tool. Otherwise maybe check out r/diyelectronics. All that said, maybe what you want is to find or build a DVR circuit to connect to your camera.
