Class : Apprenti Posts : 7 Registered on : 15/07/2013 Off line	Hello, I found an old Playstation 2 Eye Toy camera and saw that it is compatible for using with freetrack and it has an easy to remove IR filter. I haven't found any tutorials on how to disassemble the camera (only for other models) and I don't want to destroy it trying. Can anyone help me and explain how I remove the IR filter? http://s7.directupload.net/file/d/3319/5orvaj2m_jpg.htm
