OK, I'll answer my own question: http://www.profoundeffects.com/products/camerapov/. It seems pretty nifty.

Re: That Security Camera Look
True, but in my case, they have the only thing that I needed, which was the "camera look" plug-in. Playing with the demo, it does just what I need it to do, but the thing must be written in Perl or something... it's not exactly blazingly fast. Time to start saving for that dual G5.

Re: That Security Camera Look
You can already do this in FCP with a little work.
Add Color Correct and set Saturation to none.
Add other filters to degrade image such as Blur or Diffuse (bidirection random)
You can add Blink to get a flicker (high opacity long on time)
Once you get the look you want-
Add time code reader
Add Viewfinder. Has record indicator, etc but shows more of a real viewfinder.
If you wished for a different style you can create a grpahic in Photoshop (along with an alpha channel) and load that in as a layer.
Likewise you could add another layer and use the noise or random particles filters to mix in.

Re: That Security Camera Look
Now what if you were trying to make the Viewfinder screen. Could you do that in FCP? What I am talking about would look like the screen in LiveType that almost looks like a viewfinder type screen.

The Foundry's Tinderbox 3 plugin set has one called "bad TV". Seems to work well. Although it's an after effects plugin, you can use it in FCP.
Also, FCP has a built in "viewfinder". Effects>Video Filters>Video>Viewfinder
Or just make your own in Photoshop and comp it in.
Cheers.
