Hey thanks for this. I ordered the spendier one with a 7" display.
It came yesterday. I haven't tried it with the soldering iron yet.
But my daughter and I went into the woods, collected some wet moss,
and observed our first tardigrade (aka water bear or (according to wiki)
moss piglet.) (Take moss, put in water and shake a bit, take out moss
and filter water... we used a paper coffee filter. Fun stuff with kids
home from college.)

Thanks for the review George, and cool to spot a tardigrade.
Tell us more. Is any lag noticable? How is the screen to look at? Is it
a touch-screen? Resistive or capacitive? What magnifications can you
achieve at what lens-subject distance (i.e. clearance)?
In short, should I buy one for soldering? for my grand-sons?
CH
Poking around it seems OK, no lag that I noticed right away.
No soldering iron, but waving the lead from a mechanical pencil
around it looked fine.. something I can work with I hope.
Also nice for looking at critters in pond scum.
(We found other critters too... wormy things, copepods, and those
bivalve type things, ostracod. )
I'm not sure the depth of field is all that great...
but I'm not sure how to quantify that.

Right... (I didn't look at all the options.. just turned it on.
:^) But with a micro SD card you can record video and take
pictures. I guess I should buy a card.
George H.
Certainly using an SD card is better than nothing while a microSD
card is a bit less convenient, having to fumble with the adapter
to plug it into your PC and even the inconvenience of just keeping
track of yet another tiny gadget used seldom.
My still camera has an SD card, but I prefer to just plug it into
my PC with a USB cable and copy the photos off.
Same with my cell
phone. Getting the microSD card out of that thing is a chore.
The camera USB port should not only be a charging port, but shouldI just wondered if the USB cable was useful for anything other
than power.

Yes. You need a better cable than the one that

You're welcome. I have software for a USB endoscope that works with most webcams that don't use oddball commands.
I use a free thing called WebCamViewer by Bustatech. Works fine.
YAWCAM is OK too. It can dump an image periodically, which I do for
the cam at the cabin. I dump a snap of the driveway to Dropbox every
few minutes so we can admire the snow and see who is parked there.
