I have been a major distributor of hidden security cameras for close to five years
now and get a lot of questions from my customers about how images are recorded or transmitted from a spy camera. That leads me to believe that there's a lot of confusion about how security cameras or hidden cameras work.
So here we are going to try to do our best to explain how hidden security cameras work.
Take a mundane item that people are used to seeing around the home, office or business and put a board camera inside it. Audio is illegal in a hidden camera unless it's for law enforcement agencies with the exception of "body worn cameras" according to title 18 sections 2512 of the USC.
A hidden camera can be wired or wireless. Wired cameras have a video cable that runs from the camera to a recording device or viewing device like a DVR, VCR or monitor. A wireless camera has a transmitter built-in that sends a signal to a receiver. The receiver is hooked up to a recording or viewing device.
To record you need a DVR or VCR. The camera by itself will not do that. Wireless hidden cameras can transmit up to 1000 feet unless you get a high power option which adds another 1500 feet for a total of 2500 feet or close to half mile. Not all cameras have that option.
Newer models of spy cameras have a built in DVR which many folks find easier and cheaper in the long run.
That is the down and dirty of how hidden security cameras work. If you have any other questions you can contact a distributor.
