Hello guys,
I wanted to get Free Track working with my old "superb" Q-tek 300k Webcam, When I tried to remove the IR Filter it was there to stay, I couldn't do anything and I tried to smash it, w/o touching the glass itself, but I failed, so the webcam is out of focus always now ^^... Anyways, I don't really care for it, cause I wasn't using it for awfull FPS and quality....


Anyways, I'm thinking of buying a new one for about 10 pounds,  I live in Lithuania, and we don't have much of a choice here ( http://www.gerakaina.lt/new/index.php?cPath=83_109 ) , but I'm planing to get my friend from UK send one package to me, so I might aswell include an another one...


I was thinking about this one : http://www.amazon.co.uk/A4-Tech-A4-PK333MBWEBCAM-A4-PK333MB-WEBCAM/dp/B001IDZG1G/ref=sr_1_122?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1251041142&sr=1-122 I read somewhere around the forums that with the IR LEDs on it works quite nicely with reflect paper on 3 spots, instead of LEDs..

My concerns for this webcam would be

1) Won't those IR lights damage my eyes?
2) Will it work nicely during the day with the reflect tape on 3 spots? Or will I still need to get LEDs and I will just use it like a normal webcam...
3) Any suggestions?

Thanks... Sorry for my poor English :).

OK, I've got a simple list collected, anyone could advise a camera from this? http://www.paste.lt/paste/f22d173118e40e26c6ea590e8bce538e
