Has anybody used a camera with a Stamp?

I'm seriously considering buying a B/W 8bit output camera, but I'm
not shure if the stamp will manage the image size and processing.

Any information is very welcomed.

    For Daniel

    I have been using a miniature color TV camera - Ramsey Electronics - for some
    time. Has a cube video transmitter that my TV picks up on Cable channel 59.
    Camera platform is remotely RF controlled by a BS2E battery-operated module.
    Works great.

    I don't think the stamp has enough memory to do anything with the
    data except send it on to another device. I have the camera module
    extracted from a gameboy camera and may interface it with the AVR
    soon. Each image from this camera is about 15kbytes, and if you
    want to do anything with the image (object recognition, etc.) you
    will need to have the whole image stored in local memory.
