Spy camera has been in use for many years now. The purpose of its use may vary from person to person but the general motive is the same; to dig out something secret without letting others know about it. Although, most of us have only witnessed the use of spy camera in investigation or detective movies, many of us are aware of the fact that they are handy in day to day lives and arent just fiction gadgets. Spy camera can be very useful for many purposes, including, supervision on a nanny, cheating spouses, nosey landlords, theiving roommates, employee theft etc.

There are both wired as well as wireless spy camera. The wired cameras consist of wires that needs to be well hidden, whereas the wireless cameras need no such fuss. They are easy to handle and can be hidden in any nook and corner of the room or behind any furniture: as long as it records the area clearly without any disturbance. Many may not believe but like in the movies, there are wireless mini spy cameras that can be fitted in pen, tie pin or any other accessories. So, if you are an aspiring detective or just want to have some fun, a wireless spy camera is a perfect tool.

When it comes to getting a wireless spy cam, there are many things to be considered. The consideration includes colour, image quality, frequency, range etc. Getting a colour wireless spy cam is better because it is better at distinguishing different items in the field of view. But it may be a  little expensive than the ones in black and white models. Secondly, you will have to decide on the quality of image required. The higher the resolution number, the better the image quality.

The transmission frequency used by the cam also determines your purchase. This is the frequency used by the camera to transmit the video signal to the receiver. There are currently 434mhz, 900mhz, 1.2ghz and 2.4 ghz transmission frequencies available in the market. A 2.4ghz is used for professional operation, so you can choose anyone that fits your requirements. The transmission range is also a very important element in deciding which cam to choose.

The range is measured in ‘line of sight’. It is a measure of the maximum distance the spy camera can stand away from the receiver and still receive the signal with no obstruction and interference between the two. The range is usually between 300 to 2000 feet depending on the model. There are cam with the receiver included. The receiver can be your TV, VCD or DVD, through which you can view the images and sound from the wireless spy camera. The receiver may not be included, or to be included an extra sum will be needed.

Once you are clear about what type of wireless spy cam you need, you can purchase anyone you require. These cams will definitely make a difference in your life. If you arent looking for any revealations then you might just as well have some fun.

 

Who hasnt seen spy work being played by our dearest action heroes on screen? We all have seen it and we all have loved it. Moreover, we have all hoped to do it. It looks so cool being a detective/spy and using all those crazy gadgets and busting the bad guys. Eventhough, there may not be bad guys to fight and one may not be a real spy but one can always own one of those fun gadget. One of the oldest and most used spy gadgets of all time is the spy camera.

Many assume that spy cameras arent real, or atleast they cant be used in the crazy ways the actors do in the movies, but that is not true. We often tend to forget that movies are the imitation of real life and that most of the things shown on film are true or atleast true to real life. Well, so are spy cameras. Spy cameras are small cameras, somewhat like the hidden cameras, but in the most unthought of places. The spy cameras can be in any nook and corner or furnitures or decor of the house or office or anywhere possible. The possibilities are huge.

Spy camera is perfect for situations that cause you concern but yet you cant control. The situations maynot be as dangerous as in the action movies, but they are worth being kept an eye on. For example, while ar work you cannot monitor what is happening in your home. Spy camera products come in many configurations and can be used in both domestic and business environment. They are also available in such small size that they can be asserted in your watch or pen or tie pin and so on. If you thought that was possible only in the Bond movies then you are wrong.

However, they can be expensive so, make a wise decision while choosing a spy camera. There are so many models that the choice can be confusing. So, when purchasing a spy camera one must make a careful consideration as to what exactly you need the camera to accomplish. There are night/day cameras, that provide night vision. If you require the spy cam to operate 24 hrs a day as opposed to day time only then a night/day spy cam would be the best option for you.

There are also cameras that will cover all situations from large fixed position spy cams capable of operation in all weather conditions to micro spy cams that employ wireless technology, allowing easy installation as well as great flexibility. The recording facility available to you is also to be considered while deciding on a spy cam. Since, there are many that you can choose from, it is eventually a good thing for you. But yes, the shopping can be quite difficult with so many options. But with a clear mind on what you need and why you need it, the decision should not be so difficult.
