| I think the idea is a really good one, and the new small cameras take excellent pics. I hear the Casio is basically the same camera (same lens) but has a better chip and costs less. These cameras keep changing and going to higher and higher res, so the 3 or 4 mpx should be available at a discount.
With one of these you should be able to sneak shots that would otherwise be impossible due to the noise, size and hazard of regular AP rigs. If I get mine working like I want, I hope to do local photography for real estate stuff.
If you have weight problems, just fool around with your pinion selection. A guy here is carrying 5 lbs total weight flying these converted toy scale jobs. He is running 3S2P and a Kontronic twist 37, getting 5 or 6 minute hovering flights.
In order to prevent shaking, decouple the landing gear from the camera carrier, meaning put a soft foam interface between them and don't tie it tight.
