How can you spot hidden spy cameras?

I read recently that they can be disguised as intruder detectors/smoke alarms. how can you tell if its genuine or a camera?

Yea, ur not really supposed 2 know!

The whole idea of anything being hidden is so that you CAN'T detect it.

lol thought the point was you couldn't

The only way to detect it is with counter surveillance equipment or to physically tamper with the hidden camera unit. a camera could be hidden virtually anywhere. and, as you can imagine, newer technologies would dictate that some of these hidden cameras would be undetectable i.e. stealth.

They are so small and disguised in all different ways unless you have some kind of specialist equipment to find them you are not likely to find them or know they are there

It matters do u want to spend money for a detector or not

you can get inexpensive detectors for radio cameras from Maplin.co.uk, otherwise look out for small holes with no obvious purpose in the casing of everyday objects. Thinking about where the suspect camera may be looking may give some guidance

The switches with 8 PoE ports perfectly met all the requirements set out by the bus company for powering Axis cameras while delivering high quality and high speed data through the gigabit connection. Moreover, the exclusive booster technology added more value to the rugged switches making them excellent, cost-effective solutions for remote bus surveillance. Thanks to the recent developments with IP cameras as well as wireless networking, remote monitoring of buses and instant response to critical issues has become a reality, widely used by almost every bus company worldwide. yet, some challenges need to be addressed when building efficient network infrastructure, including the power conversion for driving 48V cameras from standard 24V on bus, and most importantly the unstable environmental conditions: temperature variations, vibration, shock etc. to efficiently build a network with minimized costs, Korenix JetNet 3810G series PoE switches have been chosen by a European bus company for their 8-PoE port capacity – a unique solution in the market which enables users to save costs of implementing separate PoE devices in buses. the total project included installation of 1000 switches. a single switch has been installed on-board of each bus with the capability to connect, power and transfer the captured video images from six Axis 206-FD IP cameras. the switch, powered up by 24VDC from the bus ignition system, automatically converted it to 48V power output via the exclusive Korenix PoE boosting technology for powering up the Axis cameras. Total of 65W budget was released from the switch to power up each camera by 15.4W. the collected video streams were then uplinked to the NVR through the gigabit port for recording the video images, while the second gigabit port was used to transfer the data to the wifi router, which then wirelessly transmitted it to the bus controlling center. by using the port link failure alarm function, administrators were able to fast react to any failures in the system by Diagram of European Bus Surveillance network infrastructurereceiving automatic warnings, as a result ensuring uninterrupted data transmission. the rugged design of the JetNet 3810G with vibration and shock resistance and -25~60oC operating temperature range guaranteed the reliable operation of the switch on the bus. by using Korenix

Is there any one can tell me how to set up a home surveillance video camera?

We have a nasty nighborgh who aften time let their dog **** at our front yard and we don't have any evidence that we can confront them. we need some help with seting up a home video camera to catch up the nasty people. we appreciate any help.

Jane! wireless is the way to go how ever can be costly if u have a video camera hook it up to any recording device, or on VHS, TiVO even!

Wal Mart has a variety of systems, the problem is they all run in real time with your VCR. you either need a VCR that records frame by frame or you need a Camcorder that either turns on (with a sensor) when something moves (Panasonic had a VHS-C that did that four years ago) or a camcorder that does timelaps (like a Sony HC26 which has an intervolometer).

What kind of vintage cameras would take the best vintage-looking photos?

I am trying to find the perfect vintage camera, but there are so many types and I want to know if there is a place that show what types of cameras take what type of photos. I want to know if there's a list somewhere that says the type of picture I want to get from my camera and what kind of camera would do it best. and if anyone knows what kind of cameras take the most vintage-looking pictures?

I think you might want to look at Lomographic cameras (anybody who's read my other post will think I'm shamelessly plugging, and it may be true, but I just think they're perfect in this situation). I shoot with a Holga 120CFN. it takes wonderful, vignetted, vintage pictures. I've linked a few of mine and others in the sources. Mine aren't very good, but they're good enough to show you what the Holga is like. You could also try a Diana F+, Diana Mini, or an actual Diana from the 60's (which you can get off of eBay. There are the Diana branded cameras and dozens of clones, for cheaper than the brand name cameras, with most even being rare and taking amazing photographs). the Lomographic Society International sells these. Take a peek. I've linked their shop in the sources.

I'm assuming you mean a large format camera (the ones with the accordian lens holder and the black cloth over the viewfinder). You can take vintage-looking photos with these. You can also take really nice modern photos, too (depending on the subject).

You can also just take photos in "sepia" on your point and shoot digital camera.

"what kind of vintage cameras would take the best vintage-looking photos?"

Kodak Brownies and Argus Argoflexes.

Don't forget to load it with vintage film and process with vintage chemicals.
