Hiya. I just put put togetjer my MK3 printer, and im getting awesome build footage from my Dahua, but its too big. Can any if you reccomend camera the size of the Top201 or ELPs, but with POE to keep down the cable clutter? I’m also good with getting boards only (removing from their cases) and putting them into my own printer enclosures. I’m tying these into my BI rig.

You can usually buy the HiSilicon 3516C camera boards off eBay fairly inexpensively. Search there for "POE board" and you'll find similar footprint POE boards for anywhere from $5 to $10 each.

I'm not really finding anything in a small package that worth it. What are the latest recommendations for a TOP201 sized camera? I've got two TOP 201s, but I would like something a little nicer...really wish I could find something as nice as my Starlight's in the TOP201 package and varifocal lenses.
