But today those tiny endoscope cameras are gone from the market place and I was not able to make camview work at all image scalings. Finding a camera that Just Worked turned out to be a very frustrating effort, I probably wasted $500 trying. And it wasn't the camera as it still worked with cheese by shutting lcnc down. But once it had black screened in camview, it took a system reboot to restore its image in camview. And no help from the python folks here. A python guru I am not, I can't even play one on tv. So I've not fooled with it in a couple years now. The camera plugged in right now works, but its not mountable unless you'd say a 5x7 speed graphic was mountable. Its physically way to big.
