Title: Sharp CE-AG06 camera & 6000L?
Post by: johnw on October 22, 2004, 10:35:07 am

Will the Sharp CE-AG06 camera work in a 6000L?

If you install qpe-camera and have the "sharpzdc_cs.o" kernel module you should be OK.  

This is the qpe-camera I use:

These are pretty crappy camera's by the way.  At $15 though the price was right to have the ability to take a picture if I needed to.

Hope this helps.

Yes, it will work.
Use qpe-camera software from your Sharp CD.
But IMHO you will not like this camera... So if you don't have it - don't buy it.

Could one of you post an image or two taken with this camera?  I have heard it is poor quality, but for $20 & free shipping it might be a nice gadget to play with.

Thanks

Here is a picture of my nappy self at work.  This is about as good as it gets with this camera.  The lighting could be better, but it is not a very good camera as I said before.

Whoa.  I was expecting a crappy picture, but not that crappy.  I would have been seriously pissed if I had paid the retail price for one of those when the SL5x00 first came out.  I don't see how Sharp thought they could get away with producing something like that.  I'll buy one at $20 with free shipping, but at least I'll know what I'm not buying.

Thanks for posting the image.
