The big advantage of the HF camera that I see, is the removable,
wireless, color screen...you can look at what the camera is seeing
without having to stand on your head.

Also, it comes with a video cable so you can view the image on a TV or
input it to a video recorder or camcorder...or into a video to digital
converter, as I did, and directly into my computer.

The range on the wireless monitor is better than I expected...I've been
getting about 20-30 feet indoors, through two rooms and a hall, and two
days ago, in the pouring rain, I was able to continue getting a good
image while I walked across the street to my neighbors yard...about 90
feet, with the camera sitting on my desk next to my computer here. I had
to rotate to get the strongest signal...like you do with a cell phone.

i bought the HF inspection camera as well ($139, bad timing) and can't
say enough about it.  i used it to find a baffle in my velocity tank
that didn't seal properly when i installed the top strake.  Excellent
tool at an excellent price.  the fact that you can detach the camera
from the hand controller makes it extremely useful as the picture stays
put while you maneuver the hand controller about.  Milwaukee sells an
inferior one for $249.00.  Get one now.
