Article: [senit] switch accessible digital cameras

For a much cheaper option for mounting a camera, it might be worth looking
at the Gorilla Pod:

http://www.joby.com/gp1.html

Jessops sell them for £14.99.

ls.aspx

I have one for my personal use and it's great, although maybe does not
provide the flexibility or height needed for some users. 

Can't really help on the switch accessible cameras though, sorry!

Found this Trish:

For switch adapted cameras go to: http://www.orcca.com/ They adapt a 
Kodak camera and a Vivicam camera. I like the Kodak because it has a 
larger viewing screen. they also sell mounting devices. These mounts 
are a bit expensive (my opinion) but if you are serious about using the 
camera from a wheelchair, etc. their mount is a faster option to obtain 
than trying to figure mounting out by yourself. Ablenet (www.ablenetinc.
om) also sells a switch adapted camera. It has more features than the 
Kodak. My staff likes to attach that camera to a video source like a 
large screen tv to allow all to see what is being taken. We've even 
been able to add a LittleMac to it to say "I just took your picture."

Subj: [senit] switch accessible digital cameras

I have been asked by a school about where to purchase a switch 
accessible  
digital camera.  Any ideas?  I think this may have been a recent 
topic  but 
cannot find any details. 
 I have tried to contact Liberator but they have just been taken over  
by PRI 
and it appear that you cannot contact them.
