Endoscope camera holder "angled" for Original Prusa i3 MK2

I've remixed this design from scratch based on the original source measurements and idea, as the original design showed too much of the fan duct and had the nozzle not centered. I checked out a YouTube video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e4wvldq7f-w) for the view, but the camera wasn't set up correctly. So, I redesigned this with another angle and a slightly closer tube to fit my camera better. See the picture above for the new view - the angle was necessary because otherwise the cable from the camera would be squished in between the left Z carriage and the holder while homing or printing on the far left of the bed. Can anyone recommend an endoscope camera with a stable frame rate and full HD resolution? Is this even possible in such a small form factor? UPDATE: Since my camera wasn't properly fixed, I reduced the diameter by 0.1mm. There are now two versions - 69 means the diameter for the camera is 6.9mm, and 70 means it's 7.0mm. If your camera is 7.0mm, I'd recommend the 69 version - it will hold the camera better than the other one. UPDATE: The camera kept falling out, and securing with a zip tie isn't technically correct. This led to V2 with integrated locking brackets for M3 screws and nuts (I didn't try printing an M3 thread, but maybe it could be cut). See the photos and STL attached - video of the making (https://youtu.be/Hnqc29BRr1c) and the new angle (soon to come). UPDATE: Check out the V4 version - after some hours of recording, the camera came loose again. So, I decided to make a screw to fix it. Similar to the first screw version, this has two brackets, but one of the holes is bigger and the other one smaller - so if you use a tapping M3 screw, this should work as mine. Old files are still here in case you want to tinker around with. V5 Update: I needed my camera a bit further away from the nozzle for better focus (check out the blurry videos). V5 provides this - see the two pictures of the new view.
