Some are 7mm, some 10mm and some other sizes. I'm not too clear if these "endoscope" cameras are good for the center finding purpose, as they list a 62 degree field of view, seems awfully wide for this. There's a $60 one listed as a "pen microscope" where they showed some pics and that seems to have a good close-up view. The others are not showing views, so it is harder to know.
There is a pic from the "HD5000" webcam in the Wiki at http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?Adding_Digital_Zoom_To_Camview-Emc that is not very impressive, you might be able to get it within .1mm but that's about it. There's another pic here : http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?Axis_Embed_Video That seems much more impressive, but I couldn't find what camera was used.
