Connect analog cctv to RPI 2

I am working out for my project and I want to use my old Analog CCTV and connect it to RPI 2. Is it possible to connect the analog cctv to RPI pins without using any converter? Anybody who can help me with this?

I am a nube by the way and still don't know the tracks. But I want to learn and expand my horizon.

Thanks for the help in advance.

If you mean an old CCTV monitor then yes you can the output form the RPI is normal Composite video which will work fine in most CCTV setups.
Obviously you will need to have a lead made up to connect the two but you should be OK.. Also make sure you set it to the local video standard weither that's PAL or NTSC.

If you are thinking of the CCTV camera then most are composite and you can use one of those USB based Digitisers that are common on EBAY for around £10 ish

Most have Linux support but I'm not sure if is compiled into t he RPI Kernel.

Also it would be nice if you can tell us if it's a camera or monitor you are talking about
