get the job done, at a price you can afford?

Go on reading and by the end of this article you will feel confident
buying at your favorite security shop!

What you need to consider...

1- abilities to see in poor light conditions:

You need to decide if you need to be able to film in low-light
conditions. If What you need to capture is in a well-lit room or
area, then skip this section.

If you need to film in a not so well-lit room, or maybe even
somewhere where it's quite dark, then here's what you need to
know...

A spy cam's sensibility to low light is measured in LUX. If your
needs is to capture video in a semi low light area, opt for a model
with a LUX of .05 . If it is quite dark, opt for a .03 one.

2- Quality of Picture:

The quality of the picture is directly related to 2 specific terms:
horizontal lines of resolution, and cmos or ccd technology.

-horizontal lines of resolution-

The more lines the better picture. Most spy or hidden cam have 380
lines of resolution. This is just fine.This picture quality for 99%
of anyone out there who has a surveillance need.

If you want even better, although it'll cost you more, look for one
with 500 lines.

In my opinion you should stick with 380. It's good enough and will
save you some money.

-Cmost or ccd technology-

Cmos produces lower quality images than a unit who uses CCD
technology. A ccd surveillance unit will also perform better in low
light.

While ccd based units are more expensive, really it's what you need
when top picture quality is important.

3- Frequency Of Transmission

Pick a security unit which uses the 2.4 frequency of transmission
. The other transmission frequencies are 434 mhz and 900 mhz, and are
often plagued by interference problems. So stick eith 2.4 ghz.

You can now look at different models and start to make smart buying
decisions.

Good wireless spy camera shopping!
