Nothing beats the security and extra assurance that spy cameras give. This literally gives homeowners an extra pair of eyes to watch over their home while they are out at work. With spy cameras, you know exactly what happened and when it happened and most importantly, who is involved. There have even been lives saved by surveillance cameras, and a countless number of homes and property saved because the perpetrators of unscrupulous acts were easily identified and reprimanded.

Over the recent years, spy cameras have evolved into more advanced little gadgets. These instruments can now capture videos, take pictures, and even capture audio as well. The date and time when the videos or images are taken are also included, so you know exactly when things happen. Plus, even the most innocent looking things found in most homes can be used to conceal spy cameras, and here are just some of the different spy cameras available today in the market.

Spy camera in a Tissue Box

One of the things which can be found in most homes is a tissue holder, and now this can be used to house a spy camera. You can place it on top of a table, on a bookshelf, and anywhere else in the living room. No one would suspect that there is a camera inside, especially since the tissue box works just like any regular tissue box.

Spy camera in a Pen

This is probably one spy gadget we have all seen in the movies, and now it is a reality. An innocent looking pen sitting on top of a table or stored with other pens in a pen holder can actually be a spy camera. Or, you can easily slip it into your shirt pocket and record the events happening around you.

Spy camera in an Electronic Shaver

If you suspect weird things happening inside your bathroom or perhaps in your bedroom, a spy camera cleverly concealed in an electronic shaver is also available. Leave it lying around in your room or on the shelves in your bathroom and no one would even suspect it. The best part is, you not only get a spy camera, but an actual working electronic shaver.

Spy camera in a Wall Clock

A wall clock is one of the things that people would expect to find in your house. What is great about having a spy camera that doubles as a wall clock is that it is something that no one would even think twice about, and it also functions as a regular wall clock. You can even choose a wall clock with a spy camera built in it that matches the decorations in your home.

Spy camera in a Smoke Alarm

One of the great things about having a spy camera inside a smoke alarm is that it is able to capture a wide range of events in your home. Since it is situated high enough in your house, it is unlikely that anyone would suspect having a spy camera inside, and it also keeps the camera safe from the prying hands of your toddler.

There are a lot of other items in your home that can double as a spy camera, like a can of Coke, a wristwatch, a flashlight, and even a lighter. You can easily leave these lying around your home and no one would even suspect that this tiny device is actually recording events around it.

Most of the spy cameras mentioned above is ideal for indoor use, but there are also spy cameras which are great for outdoor use and are designed to withstand changing weather like sudden rains. These are called wildlife cameras and double as a spy camera as well. These wildlife cameras are able to record videos and take pictures whenever they detect movement, so that they do not end up wasting your memory space recording nothing in the dark. Plus, these types of cameras are specially built to take clear images either in color or black and white even in the dark.

You never know when you will need spy cameras installed in your home. As such, having one installed even when there is no imminent need for it is a lot better than wishing you had one when something unfortunate happened either inside or outside your home. A wildlife camera is perfect for outdoor use, and a spy clock camera is great for indoor use.
