Interfacing with a camera

Chicken325:
Is it possible for an Arduino to interface with this camera? As in dump the picture to some external EEPROM? Also, would I be able to render the current image without storing it anywhere?

Most importantly, how do I pump 12v and 150mA into it?

The camera you linked to outputs a composite video signal (the same you'd get out of a VCR, except black and white); you can't directly interface to it with the Arduino. You could, however, use Nootropic Design's Video Experimenter shield to capture a low-resolution image from it, then store that to an EEPROM. See these links:
