A compact and light-weight video scope camera offering easy magnification changing operations. A hollow insert portion continuous to a grip to be held by an operator is provided with an imaging system at the leading end. Operating an operation switch on the grip allows operational movement of a selection mechanism in the insert portion to cyclically or selectively select, from plural preset distance values, a distance between a lens and an image pickup device in the imaging system, corresponding to which distance, the lens or the image pickup device is moved relative to each other by an imaging system component of mechanism to set any one of predetermined magnification modes. This results a compact, light-weight video scope camera offering easy magnification changing operations. The invention is applicable to various video scope cameras for diagnosis and/or treatment in dentistry and orthopedics and also for industrial or educational use. |
