I've ordered one just to try it out. Supposedly it comes with:
A 10m usb cable
VGA output 640x480
has 4 LED's
66 degree field of view
Waterproof - Although I'm putting it in a waterproof tube
Come with a CD for video translation
$29.00
I would suspect the depth of field would be limited but I saw some video from it and it seemed to be able to 'see' across a lighted room.
I'm thinking I can extend the cable out to 20 - 30 meters.
Also used in drain pipe applications.
Anyone?
Anyone ever try an endoscope video camera?

Maybe USB over Ethernet to extend the range?

Hope it wasn't used.
Where did you order it from? It might be worth looking into.

Ordered it from EBAY Look it up with: 10M USB Waterproof Borescope Endoscope Flexible Inspection Snake Tube Camera.
New!...
I'll check it out and let you know. I believe it works off the USB 5v.

Re: Anyone ever try an endoscope video camera?
Just bought an adjustable 5v - 35v up converter (saves me having to build it) in case the IR drop in the cable causes problems. It was only $3 so we will see.
I could breakout the USB 5v line and take it to a separate supply in the event I need more than 1 amp.
