Clarification on Making the Right Selection for Your Application

Whatever your application, you ideally need the best picture possible.

  • What is the largest diameter Endoscope that can be used for your application? You really need to use the largest size possible.
  • What length of Endoscope does your application demand?
  • Do you need to go around corners? This maybe a deciding factor as to whether use a rigid or flexible.
  • Direct view or camera? Do you just want to look directly through the Endoscope, couple with a Digital Camera or a CCD camera with a TV screen.
  • Do you need to record the images?
  • Cost? What is your budget for your application? This can also have a major factor on your choice of Endoscope.

    A couple of things to consider:

    Smaller Endoscopes = higher cost.
    High quality = higher cost.
    Large Diameter = higher resolution image

    This is pretty much the same regardless of flexible or rigid Endoscopes.
