Micromark CCTV Camera wiring details wanted

Hi All,
I've acquired a Micromark Black & White Miniature CCTV Camera Model MM23196 (with built-in PIR) and want to use it for monitoring a bird nesting box. All I have is the camera part, no power supply or SCART cable. I've already done this successfully with another more basic Micromark CCTV Camera that I got hold of complete with power supply and cabling. The connections to this one are via a miniature 6-pin DIN plug. I've managed to work out 2 of the pins (0v and Video) but need to know which pin the DC supply (8v) goes in on and which pin the audio (microphone) comes out on. Can anyone help? I plan to try emailing Micromark but am not sure if they will give me that kind of techie detail :-)

The camera I have is the one on the right of this picture.

If anyone can help I'd be eternally grateful.

Below is a framed grabbed from video of the Blue Tit currently roosting in one of my nesting boxes so I'd like to get a camera on the second box I have on the back of the house because tits nested in that one last year.

Retired so trying to save even more!
