Hi Bev, When it comes to borescopes, Olympus is very high quality. http://www.olympus-ims.com/en/rvi-products/ I manufacture an instrument for jet turbine engine blade inspection so i am aware of the products they make for this area as well as past experience in medical devices and the many instruments that they make for endoscopic surgery. That being said, there are so many scopes to chose from, it depends on your precise needs that would determine what is best. Here's an interesting website showing a huge variety of scopes http://www.fiberscope.net/ and they rent so you could try before you buy? Also http://borescopesrus.com/ Gradient lens technology is available in borescopes http://www.gradientlens.com/?gclid=CIntgr2WgrkCFQya4AodPWgAIQ Bob Bob Landman President Life Senior Member, IEEE H&L Instruments, LLC PO Box 580 34 Post Road North Hampton, NH 03862 tel (603) 964-1818 fax (603) 964-8881 www.hlinstruments.com _____ From: Bev Christian [mailto:[log in to unmask]] To: [log in to unmask] Sent: Fri, 16 Aug 2013 07:46:33 -0500 Subject: [TN] Fiber optic borescope Good morning! I am on the hunt for a high end fiber optic borescope for my lab. # of pixels, fiber OD, FoV, depth of field, fiber length and ability to be hooked to a camera/monitor system are all things of interest. This is NOT for looking under BGAs. We already have an endoscope. Reply on or off line as appropriate.
