Tim, 

I gather from a previous message from Milton the Chameleon would cost only about $100 more than these Flea 2`s..

Of course there`d also be the obligatory development kit & $100 USD postage for me here in Australia.

I wonder what happened to the labels on these cameras..?

Mark.

Good to know. I wonder why they suspected fraud? Did someone flag the ad?

The flea2 is a nice camera. Reasonably fast, and though not as sensitive as the Exview had equipped flea3 and Chameleon cameras, it does well for me.

I was contemplating adding a monochrome version, and using two scopes to acquire luminance and RGB simultaneously. ...but I'm silly like that sometimes!

-Tim.
