Has anyone used the Looxcie camera to film their railroad.  It looks like the camera would fit on a flat car.  How is the video?

It's better in some ways than the wireless cameras many have tried using, and not so great in others. The video is clean and smooth, and most importantly glitch-free. However, the depth of field isn't quite deep enough; objects closer than about six inches start to get quite blurry. A shame, really, because you can place it on a flatcar and start shooting right away; it's also very easy to use. I'll post some footage later in the week.

What you can't edit film as quickly as you build your models?!?! Yep, judged.
