i am looking for a small but high quality color wireless video cam,
with a receiver that runs on battery power as well as the transmitter.
output only needs to be composite (yellow RCA) but s-video would be
nice. can anyone recommend one? i would be running 2 cameras so it
would need to work on at least a couple different frequencies. audio
would be nice but not crucial. budget is $100-125 per camera. thanks
in advance

Have a look on ebay in the radio controlled section under parts and
accessories, you can pick these up for £14.99p each. Plus it comes with
standard video out lead to plug into your TV / Computer Monitor or even your
Video Recorder. There are Audio versions available too.
Can be powered by small PP3 square 9 volts batteries or even wall-wart type
power supply.

200m metre range (although allegedly reported up to 500m range)
Broadcast quality pic too. (Mine does NOT have audio but that does not
bother me)

I bought one the other week for one of My R/C Helicopters.........it is
excellent.
Delivered from HongKong but I received it within 4 days of purchase...!!

In my experience they only have a 50m range outdoors
(using 10mW transmitters, 2400 MHz frequency) at ground level.
The range decreases if the ground is wet, if there are any
obstructions, etc. For aerial use, the range is greatly
extended, of course.
