I am at the point where I am somewhat prayerfully looking a getting should have a camcorder (though I am still without a cell phone which some can be controlled by). But while I have narrowed down the candidates to 5 (plus a Action Camera in case that would be viable). I am looking for one with the best sharp resolution (color quality is not that important) which would be used outsides as well as in, but I have little idea what the specs mean.
I see specs such as 720p, or 1920 x 1080P, or 1920x1080 FHD @15fps, 1280x720 HD, as well as Resolution:6000x4500(24M),5120x3840(20M),4608x3472(16M) plus CMOS: 1.3Mega pixels, max 16.0Mega pixels, or 5.1Mega pixels CMOS sensor(16MP Interpolation), and then 3.0 TFT LCD screen.
I am leaning to the SUNLEA or the LINNSE, while I put the action camera in there since i wondered if that could be used.
I do not want to waste money, and this would be a substantial purchase for such a thing, and so I thought I would ask advice from some FReepers. So below is what i see on Amazon, and thanks for any advice.

I see that, though I actually have 2 - under 30.00 security cameras, one was sent by the vendor since the first would not work with a PC as it said it would, but it turns out the second would not do so either, forcing the Chinese vendor to admit their software was only for cell phones/smart phones, which I do not need or want another bill for. Enough phone calls already.
Right.
Thanks.
Well you see that's my plan. Once you buy one of the ones listed and try it out then you can tell me how good it is!
And when I say built; I mean soldered all the parts onto the circuit board!
Programed it in assembly language with only the manual that showed what commands would do.
'Twas amazing what you can cram into only 256 BYTES of ram!
Articles?
I still have to open the pod bay doors manually.
You mean when you were not posting on the FR RF?

Indeed. Apollo Guidance Computer had approximately 64Kbyte of memory and operated at 0.043MHz.
That’s a real home brew computer! ! ! For the last ten years I built - assembled my own but not on your level. My latest two are from a few years ago using G3220 Pentium with 8gb memory and the other w 16gb memory. Today CPUs are down in price for amazing performances while memory is almost double the price. Motherboard prices are the same. I only assemble my desktops.
