Turner, Maine If it was built after 1980 don't expect it to work right.

The lens has nothing to do with the power supply. It is true the more LEDs on a camera it will draw more current, but remember not all cameras have Leds. You can have a camera with a 3.5mm lens and one with a 12mm lens it will draw the same current. I Swear I did not touch anything
