After some years of experimenting and development of reduction methods, amateurs are now able to routinely produce meteor orbits from double-station observations with intensified video cameras. This article describes the observations during the 1995 Quadrantid maximum as well as our data reduction procedures. Accurate orbits and atmospheric trajectories of 20 sporadic and 29 Quadrantid meteors were obtained, which is a significant contribution to the existing knowledge on the Quadrantid stream. The average orbit of small Quadrantid meteoroids, as observed with intensified video cameras, is shown to be equal to the orbit in the photographic mass range.
