HI Milton,

Just to further that, the mono and color USB 2 Chameleon cameras
worked fine in my testing. I still have a Chameleon Color model here

The early Chameleon (and also some FireFly MV) models likely had a
firmware bug - which can be fixed by updating the camera firmware to
the latest 1.4.3 or higher version.

HTH..
