Webcams in 16:9 aspect ratio?

[Billy Griffin]

Perhaps I've been living under a rock and there are a few out there, but can anyone advise if there are USB webcams available that currently do 16:9 (wide screen) aspect ratio?

Thanks in advance,

The Fujitsu 200HD is reputed to do so: http://sp.ts.fujitsu.com/dmsp/docs/ds_webcam_200_hd.pdf

Sounds very interesting, and UVC compatible....

Is that the only one??? Never thought about it, but I would prefer to use a wide screen format. Works with my stream better (although I still very much in prototype phase for streaming).

Not that it makes a big difference, but with most TV stations now fully HD in 16x9, it would be nice to send them a full-screen stream, instead of in 4:3.

I'm sure, with time, a lot of the newer webcams will come with 16:9 options.
As for the immediate, it looks like they're few and far between.
