Hi Phill
We looked into the A520 and the A620 when we were installing Pre-View.
As far as I can see the only difference if that the A520 is 4MP whereas the A620 is 7.1Mp and has a flip out LCD.
As I presume you will not be climbing along the ceiling mount, you will not need the flip out screen ??
Plus, now the A520 is slightly cheaper.
We have had no problems at all with out A520.
Does that help any?

Hi John
I will have a look at the A520, as you say it should be cheaper, and you don't want the extra MPix because it is all shown on the screen not printed , I will have to try to get down to see you, so I can see it in action.

The A620 uses USB2 and transfers the images to the computer noticeably quicker than the A520. Apart from that, both cameras are equally suitable for use in a visualisation system. As you say Phill, the extra pixels are unnecessary for on-screen display purposes.
As far as I am aware, neither of these models are currently in production.
