I was just looking at the camera on the macbook.. It is maybe 3mm dia. that could be put in a .5 thick case and you would have a 4mm dia camera for pretty cheap. The megapixel camera on my motorola cell phone appears to be about 1mm lens dia.

Seems to me somewhere in the computer peripherals world there should be a camera and light USB device for around $30.

they put video camera on R/C planes. Those have t be pretty small and they are either wireless or record to a microSD card. Whatever that is ought to work, except for the absence of a light. But if you can keep the camera to 4mm dia, then you should be able to get light in with the remaining 6mm


You know, I had this idea a few years ago, to make a cheap cam like that for hobbyists, cars, etc. and never really pursued it. I see Harbor Fright has one now for about a $100, has a little display and the cam on the end of a flexible thingie. It looks fairly small, but maybe not small enough for that application. Don't think it has a light.

(Mfgr and model number) that would be small enough (9-10mm dia or
less....5-6 mm?) to pass through the hole in the head where a prechamber goes (OM61x and OM60x) to work as a borescope, preferably with onboard
light.

I would think anyone in the medical equipment biz could arrive at that
type of instrument, as in arthroscopic surgery equipment or that other
stuff they shove up your groin to examine your heart and do surgery
there - that all has lights, action, camera.  Cost being no problem.
Perhaps with your glow-in-dark doors sources, this type of equipment
comes up used from time to time?
