When it comes to choosing an inspection camera, there are a significant number of factors to consider among the variety of products available. Before you begin your search, you’ll first need to know your specific purpose for the camera; how much lighting is required, the size and flexibility of the camera, and your intended budget. Other factors to consider are the camera’s durability, resolution, and wireless connectivity capabilities.
Once you’ve established your intent for an inspection camera, it’s then paramount to consider the camera’s ease of use, especially if you are unfamiliar with using inspection cameras. Finding cameras with intuitive controls and user-friendly interfaces will be best. Some inspection cameras can include additional features, like capturing and storing video and photos.
Lastly, it’s beneficial to consider an inspection camera’s portability. This is especially important if you work in a trade and are often traveling between jobs. Some inspection cameras can be bulky and cumbersome, while others are smaller, easier to carry, and possess more versatility when it comes to maneuvering in tighter, cramped areas.
When searching for an inspection camera, you’ll often come across a few common styles including:
Borescopes — These are comprised of a camera at the end of a flexible probe, often connecting via USB or directly to a screen. They are commonly used to inspect engines, curving pipes, and other hard-to-access areas.
Sewer Cameras — These cameras are crafted to inspect sewers along with other underground pipes. Most of the time, these are mounted on a flexible cable that’s upwards of 50ft long and can often be controlled remotely.
Inspection Cameras with Wireless Displays — Designed with ease of use in mind, these cameras connect to a wireless display, making it easier to assess cramped areas safely. Since the two parts can work remotely from each other (while in range), these cameras offer great flexibility.
While borescopes help inspect areas with very narrow access, they have some apparent downsides. For starters, their rigid probe makes storing them a pain, even when coiled. Borescopes are also limited in their standalone abilities, restricting their use cases and doing less to justify their cost.
Sewer cameras, also known as drain inspection cameras or pipeline inspection cameras, are an invaluable tool for assessing the state of sewer lines and pipes. They are, however, very purpose-built, which limits their versatility to take on other tasks and their steep price point may prove them to not be the solution you’re looking for. For simple drain inspections like viewing through cleanouts and inspection ports, a general inspection camera may be a better solution.
An inspection camera with a wireless display is exceedingly convenient for viewing or capturing video and images of whatever space you inspect. However, for those inspection cameras designed with a standalone display, they can add bulk to your toolkit and more points of failure. What’s more, that extra equipment often comes with extra cost; why not make more efficient use of some of the tools you already have? The Ferret inspection camera can help you do exactly that.
