and this one

I have an older Version (Veho VMS-001) of the last one, has less
Megapixels. Works nicely for similar purposes but does forget its driver
every time it's unplugged. That is a bit of a nuisance but I learned to
live with it, I let it re-install every time. Sometimes I get better
pics using external lighting instead of the built-in LEDs.

What I really like is the working distance mine allows, several inches.
