I have a Raspberry Pi 3 b+....HELP?
I have the Raspberry Pi model 3 b+.
I want to connect a CCTV camera that is 1080p and has a BNC video connector and a 12V connector.
How can I do that and be able to watch the live feed from raspbian?
thank you

If you wanted decent performance out of it, you would need some sort of video capture "hat" for it. A USB capture device would work, but would probably not be fast enough for 1080p. You would have to get power for your camera from somewhere else, as the Raspberry Pi does not output 12 volts, and probably wouldn't supply sufficient amperage even if it did.
Watching the video from inside Raspbian would be relatively easy, assuming the capture device has V4L drivers (either included in the kernel or compiled yourself). You would just need to fire up an application that supports V4L, such as Cheese or VLC.
