Sorry if this is the wrong forum. I had considered the night vision forum, but felt that was the wrong place for it. I do believe an IR light would make this an ultimate night vision camera, but I had a different question.
To read small print or see small stuff I use a closed loop system like a microfish system. http://www.wheelchairmodifications.org/cctvs_viewers.htm It can zoom in on a tv screen, change colors and do a split screen. I have built one myself that i can wear http://www.wheelchairmodifications.org/home_made_cctv.htm
A company has made a much more compact unit with a video screen that you wear. You can see stuff in the distant enlarged, different colors. Below is a link to it.

Anyway, what I wanted to know, if anyone had any experience, was if this could be done smaller. I had considered getting two cameras one for distance one for up close. Have the distance camera mounted on my eye glass frame and have a mini lcd screen down below my field of view or up above my field of view. Maybe make this into a baseball hat and attach the screen to the bill? The second camera for close up work would be put on a finger, wrist, arm, etc and I would wear a box that powered it and swtich between the cameras. I guess of all, distance would be the main thing. THis way I could focus the camera on my eyeglasses to see down a street if I am waiting for the bus or the spec sheets I could hang up on my walls in my cubical.
My vision is soo bad optics are beyond me. That is why I have no entertained the idea of a magnifier or telescope.
Just an idea.......
