abarbarian Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 We tested five ways — and one’s the clear winner Quote Hidden cameras are being found in hotel rooms, house rentals, cruise ships, and even airplane bathrooms, leaving many travelers to wonder: “Could a hidden camera be watching me?” Spycams, as they’re called, are getting smaller, harder to find and easier to buy. Quote And rather than having to retrieve the camera to obtain the recording, owners can stream live images straight to their phones, said Pieter Tjia, CEO of the Singapore-based tech services company OMG Solutions. Even worse, voyeurs can sell the footage to porn sites, where it can be viewed thousands of times. The articles title is pretty misleading. It may be correct however if after spending $400 they could only find 17 of the 27 hidden cameras then I would call that a fail and a waste of money.

You could easily find them all that way. You would get a glare or reflection off of every single lens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The expensive one only found eleven of the twenty seven hidden cameras. Quote Test 4: Using a lens detector Next up: a basic lens detector, which is cheap, portable and easy to use. The device emits infrared light, which reflects back from a camera lens as a red dot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
