The elmo just says "Ack, ERR or Complete" but since multiple cameras can
be diasychained then it gets more complex, which camera threw which error.

Another thing to look into is the pan/tilt heads, I was looking at these
as they are much more flexible, you can put any camera on em, but I did
not look very far. (zoom is obviously trouble)

have fun!
