DEPSTECH Triple Lens Industrial Endoscope Camera with Lights, 1080P Borescope with Split Screen, 5" IPS Screen Sewer Inspection Camera, IP67 Waterproof, Helpful Tool for Wall Duct Drain Pipe-4.92ft

This is my second Depstech bore scope and already I'm in love with the DS520. Just everything about it is spot on perfect. Easy to operate, easy to hold in your hand. Very nice image and video resolution. Moving files to the computer is a snap. Wow, fantastic. from top to bottom.This honestly feels like something you'd get from Snap-on for several hundred dollars. The quality is just really stunning for the price tag. The 5 ft cable is easy to manage also. The company has clearly been steadily improving their products. I have an older Depstech camera (the DS450 triple lens) which I also like, but this new DS520 is just a cut above. The split screen view is handy also; using the menu you can roll through cameras A, B, C and then also split off to A/B or A/C. The button for snapping a quick photo is also really convenient. They have really done an outstanding job here on this bore scope and I'm a very picky customer when it comes to my tools and equipment. It just seems like they have really nailed this one.The cable on this camera is also very easy to control as compared to the DS450. I specifically bought this DS520 in order to get a slightly shorter (~ 5ft) cable, so it would be easier to control while inspecting engines, etc. The new cable on this camera is also much easier to position and control; it doesn't coil up all over the place - really appreciate that subtle change in cable materials. The cable connects to the head unit really well also. On my previous Depstech, I had to use a razor to cut away a little of the plastic to help the USB video cable seat properly. On this model, their cable connection is 100% perfect and snaps into place great; nice and secure feeling.The size of the screen on this unit is just right. Not too big, not too small and very sharp as far as image quality. The resolution and display are crystal clear. I also like having all the buttons right under your thumb, that is super nice. This allows you to control things while working without having to constantly stop and move the unit around, etc. All the buttons feel nice and have a quality feel/feedback to them as well. The ability to snap photos one handed on the fly while holding the unit is really great. Just wow... really fantastic job by Depstech. I absolutely love this bore scope.Worth noting also that the customer service from Depstech is always outstanding. The times I've emailed with the company, they have gotten right back to me and provided great service. You can tell they really are highly concerned about their reputation and providing excellent customer experience. I really appreciate that about Depstech.I'm sold.. what else can I say? The DS520 is a home run.

I purchased this to investigate a hole that appeared in my kitchen floor made by a rat (yes, very worrying!!).There will be many more uses and I am pleased with the quality and ease of use. Unfortunately I purchased the one with a 4ft cable as the seller had not made the length clear and I had assumed (wrongly) that it would be 5m (16ft). With a short (4ft) cable it would be perfect for most uses, particularly car inspection or looking behind a stud wall or down the sink. For me I need the longer cable as it will be used for pipe and drain inspection, maybe 10m would be more sensible.Having three cameras seems like a good idea and not much more expensive than one or two, it depends what you want to use it for. It does not seem as though any of the borescope / endoscope camera come even close to the quality of a mobile phone camera which is a shame. I do like the 5" screen and it is easy to use.

I purchased this for 1 particular job and it worked great. I have used it a number of times to look at different things. I feel it's worth the price.

The image quality is better than I was expecting, particularly outside its best focal range. The biggest problem I ran into is that the cable is fairly stiff, as it needs to be for its intended use, and the viewer unit is quite light, so moving the cable usually results in moving the viewer unless you can dedicate one hand to each. My solution to that problem was to buy a short USB 3.0 extension cable and insert that between the viewer and the camera cable. The extension cable is much more flexible and means that I can move and twist the camera without displacing the viewer. It also makes it possible to use the full length of the camera cable and still keep the viewer in a convenient position - well worth the $10 it cost me to buy a 3-pack of 4-foot USB cables. (Note: if you do this, stick with a short extension cable! USB 3 specifies a maximum passive cable length of 3 meters; a five-foot camera cable plus a four-foot extension cable is bumping up against that length limit. And always remember that the connection between the cables is not at all water resistant; the IP-68 rating ends at the USB connector on the camera cable.)

The camera work well very clear view and takes good pictures, having 3 camera view, forward and 2 side view easy to switch and can have 2 images at the same time. The only thing I don’t like is the camera cable is a little stiff and long, some times it is hard to turn in tight places. Would recommend but if you do automotive buy the shorter cable.
