I ended up buying this one. I just plugged it into the PC and loaded this piece of software from the mini disc that came with it.



The camera appears to do stills and video (with sound - no idea how) but I don't think it's much use for either unless there's already plenty of light on the subject. Instructions are non-existent.

There is an adjuster on the cable for adjusting the light. Agreed instructions or useless

Thumbs up Which did Dallas buy

I used an Endoscope on my Sills a couple of years ago BUT simply did not get the quality of picture Dallas has shown. His seems to produce far more light than mine so really keen to know where he got his for. To compensate on mine I bought an Xmas white LED string of lights and inserted them into the Sills once I had removed the Chrome ( stainless steel ?) finisher. Anyway , like to know more about your device Dallas. Thanks

Hi Roger, Its just a regular non branded 6LED endoscope as seen on ebay, 1.3MP camera with a 5.5mm lens case size. I bought it about two years ago from ebay, or it could have been from Gearbest.

I've had a quick search and found this 3MP 6LED model HERE... even comes in a case/tin.

You can also try using a photo editing program if your images are dark or pixelated, try lightening/sharpening them, this can often make all the difference.

I hope that helps.

Just make sure you don't get the camera stuck when you go poking around like I did.
