Any experience / recommendations? Some of the chinese ones on ebay at ~
£100 look quite good.

Depends on whether you'd be happy with the small screen and relatively low
resolution. The all in one units tend to be SD. The ones without screen
can be HD.


Indeed. I've got a Maplin all-in-one jobbie, and am not all that
impressed. The picture isn't all that good, and the screen bit
inevitably moves when you manipulate the camera end, so it's difficult
the work out the orientation of what you're looking at. Typical intended
use was things like trying to see where waste pipes went, behind a
kitchen cabinet - but I ended up totally confused!

With hindsight, would I have bought it? No.
