Now that has potential:

By pure coincidence, I already have a Sony HDR-SR1 high-def (1080i)
camcorder and a 21" 16:9 LCD display with HDMI input in the lab.

Putting those two devices together and adding an appropriate macro lens
would seem to be a natural thing for this kind of work.

Great idea, Ian!

Not my own idea, but a friend's. He particularly likes having the camera
a long way above the work, so the area in front of him is completely
clear.

Come to think, my dentist has very a similar system as part of his fancy
new workstation, which is styled like the bridge of the Starship
Enterprise.
