A while ago there was a discussion about USB cameras and whether they
were any use for looking into dark and dingey DIY-type places - has
anyone found anything suitable?

Why usb? laptop use yes but most flat screen monitors(if not all)have a
composite input besides the normal digi input.
So a composite wireless camera also has its advantages over laptop USB ie
the wireless camera can be more manouverable than one on a cable.


Yes, for use with a laptop.
For a DIY "looking down holes and under floors" application I can't see
the appeal of wireless. I think ideally the camera should be pen-shaped
so it can fit into holes or be strapped-on to a pole.
