Choosing the RIGHT Spy Camera

Choosing the RIGHT Spy Camera for your Secret Needs

The web is literally flooded with spy cameras.

So how do you choose the best spy camera out there?

You simply need to pick the one that’s right for you and your mission.

That’s it!

So the question goes like this: Which one is the spy cam that’s right for me?

There are plenty of mini cameras out there, it's up to you to decide which one's the right for you

The answer depends on your target, the weather, your hair length, your wrists size, your eye form, your body shape – as you can see, there are plenty of factors in choosing a spy camera.

Weather:

Factor in the weather when choosing. If it’s summer time, you might use spy glasses – especially if you’re male. same goes for picking a wrist watch spy camera, as it’s best used during summer time. If it’s winter, you better pick something you can hold with your hand, or you could use a button-type micro camera.

There are cameras which are mountable – in this case it’s important if they’re weather proof or not – make sure to factor that in your search.

Size is important – but the most important features are portability and resolution. Sensor quality is sometimes quite bad – make sure you read the specs of the cameras – the minimum resolution would be 640×480 – that’s for tiny, micro-mini spy cameras which you can compare to an ant in size. Anything larger is supposed to have a higher resolution, too.

Price: not important at all. If you’re on a budget, pick a camera which fits as closely as possible to the maximum you can afford – as else you’ll be making a compromise with quality and we don’t want that.

Looks: very important. That is closely related to build quality – if your camera is flimsy and ugly it’s more likely somebody will notice it. If it looks cheap, it will look suspicious. If your “watch camera” is looking as if you just bought it from a jewelry/high quality watch shop, you will have a higher chance of success and lower rate of camera recognition.

Where should you pick your cameras from: It depends. Amazon is an interesting place – it has a bit of everything, but it’s a bit shallow if you know what I mean – you can’t see detailed specs, detailed photos of the cameras there – besides, you will be pretty limited in terms of choice. Some cameras are un-sellable on Amazon – as they’re close to being illegal or banned from open sale. In such cases I would head directly to www.aliexpress.com – specifically, to their Security section – if you find a website which offers bigger choice, PLEASE let me know – so far I personally have not found ANY competition to AliExpress.I’ll even put my money where my mouth is – if you find a website with a greater choice of security cameras/spy equipment, let me know and I’ll send you $1000! Does that sound serious? You bet it is!

I buy from them regularly – and a LOT – and I’m very, very happy with what I’ve gotten so far.

Reviews: when picking a camera, try and read the reviews below the product options. They are indeed helpful.

Last but not least, be creative. You can buy just the “guts” of a mini spy security camera and put them in a stuffed plush animal yourself – or in a box, or in the fire alarm, in a book – and that’s going to be the perfect choice for you. Look around the room you’re targeting (or around your target, anyway) and try and think of ways to conceal the camera. I’m sure you’ll find plenty of hiding places!
