*A non-plug / non-commercial post*


Always had an intention of getting a microscopic camera for closeup photos, but never seriously considered since prices were expensive when they hit the market. I knew what I wanted, but really couldn't find anything until finally over this past weekend, I stumbled across this Youtube post of his purchased items. It is exactly what I had envisioned, but the Youtube poster's video really didn't provide explanations of where his purchase came from. I called a couple businesses, but that was a waste. So hopefully my post will help others out later, in case searching for a similar specific item.

If folks are trying to post helpful videos on Youtube, f'n describe where the product came from or where purchase was done. The 'assumption' thing stands out way too much with some of the supposed helpful Youtube videos. The kid's review is so-so, but it did part of its job.

Hello Shaan, After do all settings with your smartphone and the cam, is it possible someone else far away from you can watch the live video, just from the app?


+D. Segura No, only you can watch it from anywhere because you need to use that app and it also has a password.


If the person has the app, and knows the password, can he/she watch the live video? Also, does the button camera hidden on my clothes, has to be connected to my smartphone, used as a router?


+D. Segura If the person has the app, and has the device id and password what you can change if you think someone does, then yes they can watch the video. And yes you can connect the camera to your phones wifi to use it as a button camera.

My preference is non-wifi since I still use outdated cellphone product instead of a smartphone setup. I won't be linking to wifi supported ebay listings, but there are plenty of listings.

Granted these are common on ebay these days, I am planning on going with this seller/vendor

Seller : foto4easy


One of the items is the Y3000, but video resolution is out-of-date resolution and is now considered old technology, but it does have photo support which still makes it useful, but using the controls requires tiny hands/fingers....maybe ideal of the 'sob-in-office'. ;-)

I then noticed these other two items listed for sale which happen to be what I plan on buying. There is a switch that is supposed to take photos and/or video and my need is photo only. The first one (at 34.00) is probably the one I will buy since photos I plan on taking will be miniature closeup pcb ic chips photos.....from an insect's view perspective. :-)
