I Never Said That--Get It On Cam!


This tiny security cam is just perfect for my needs! I am a mystery shopper. I do dozens of shops per week, retiring to my car after each one to frantically write notes, then snap pics, so that I don't forget any important details for the shop report. Many times, those reports must also include video of the location, or certain aspects of the location, such as the parking lot, restrooms, etc. Lugging a camera is very conspicuous and could blow my cover. This cam, however, has solved that problem!

First, I am able to capture quick recordings of locations with just the press of a button. No detail of that locale is lost or forgotten, and since the cam clips right on my collar, no one is the wiser. Second, the quality of the recording is great for such a tiny cam. To watch or transfer the video, I simply place the mini SD card (which is not included) into a card adapter, then into my laptop SD slot. It could not be any easier.

The cam itself is very versatile. It can be wall mounted or carried, clipped to clothing or a car visor. It can be set to record with motion detection or simply to record on command. The status lights make it clear which mode the cam is in at any given time. The fact that it's infrared makes it a breeze to get good, clear footage at night as well. Used as a security cam, the motion detection mode will record up to SEVEN DAYS or 100 minutes on a single charge. Considering I have to charge my iPad every three hours, the seven days on standby really impressed me. ;) Finally, it has a sensitive built in microphone so that you don't miss a sound.

Overall, this is a sound little device that will provide you with viewable footage, complete with full audio. Five stars for performing as promised!

Note: I received this cam at no cost in exchange for my honest feedback and review.
