UEMSI Navigator Video Pipeline Camera

Now, this particular brand and model has a 300-foot video "push cable," with water-blocking gel, that's capable of inspecting a pipe as narrow as two inches diameter. It has an interchangeable 1.4-inch by two-inch color camera head transmitting to a nine-inch color monitor, a DVD recorder/player and VCR, and a handheld microphone so the operator can add notes and observations to the video. The portable system works on either AC or DC electricity.

Here's the thing: As of April 15, 2008, manufacturer UEMSI no longer manufactures it. That means companies like ProfessionalEquipment.com and Plumbing-Tools.net are selling out their inventory, and that means you might be able to strike a bargain (so long as the seller agrees to a reasonable warranty). These two companies offer the system for $5,735 and $5,535, respectively. Or, you could check out UEMSI's next-generation ProCam. It all depends, of course, on your view.
