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.
