You have two options when it comes to types of hidden cameras - wired and wireless. Wireless hidden cameras can run on batteries or be plugged into an outlet for power. The wireless name comes from the fact that it does not require a direct connection to a recording device. They either transit the signal from a transmitter in the camera to the recorder or some even have a built in DVR recorder. The latest spy cameras for home record directly to an SD memory card. An SD memory is the same memory used in digital cameras and camcorders. The size of the memory card determines the amount of recording time available. This type of hidden camera is the easiest to set up and operate.



A wired spy camera is more complicated due to the fact that it does require a direct connection to the recording device. Unless the camera and recorder are in close proximity to each other this can require a run of cable that will have to be concealed in some manner, whether it be run through walls, under carpet, etc... If these wires are not properly concealed you kind of defeat the purpose of having a "hidden camera".

Hidden cameras have been able to disguise mini wireless spy cameras to look like normal, everyday items that blend in with any decor. They can be disguised as alarm clocks, wall clocks, bags, chair, TV, books, toys, air fresheners, smoke detectors, and the list goes on and on. This allows you to choose the appropriate spy camera for home based on where you will be placing it, the field of view you desire, and what will look best for your desired placement.

Other factors you may want to consider would be a motion activated spy camera. If there is specific areas you need to observe but you only need the recording done when there is activity there then a motion activated spy camera is the way to go. This feature will also allow you to maximize your recording capabilities instead of wasting recording space with inactivity.

If your concern is protecting your home or business from intruders then consider surveillance system. This will allow you to place cameras at many different locations and properly cover doors, windows, and other points of concern. Many of these systems are expandable so you can add cameras as needed. Spy cameras for home are great for protecting your children, your property and your business.
