The Samsung CCD camera that I ordered was listed as "refurbished". The camera I received would be better described as "Used and in need of repair". When received, the camera obviously had something loose inside of it; when I removed the cover, the screw holding a circuit board in place had fallen out of its hole. On inspection, the glass covering the CCD was dirty, and screws were missing from the C-mount sleeve. On calling Hyper Microsystems to ask what I should do with the camera, the only offer from the technician was that I could return it for them to inspect-- a hassle. Overall, my conclusion from this transaction was that you get less than you pay for with Hyper Microsystems.
