This is the thread for the modern equivalent of the back-of-comic-book spy gear, only made for geeks all grown up and with way too much dispensible income.

Also, there's an entire niche industry focused on camo self-contained wireless cameras for hunters. Do a search for "Trail cameras," there's a shitloada stuff out there.

Oh this is a good idea for a thread!

I figure, this should be fun for a friday.

How would the camera on that phone even work? The only thing you could film discreetly would be the ceiling and like a big chunk of your hair.

"why are you pointing your phone at me?!!"
"oh umm...what? how does this thing work again?"

RabiesAngentleman, Friday, 22 August 2008 17:54 (seventeen years ago)

Well, I suppose you could leave it on a dresser or something....

I was so mad after Spy Kids came out, that they had all these cool toys like NIGHT VISION goggles. Mad bcz it was not around when I was ten. I was happy after Spy Kids came out bcz it is AWESOME.

This is pretty funny in retrospect!

"They'll never guess... A camera in your phone!"

It should have been pretty funny in 2008, too!

Did they have camera phones back then? I can't remember.

Tuomas, Thursday, 16 May 2013 13:10 (twelve years ago)

They would have had camera phones in 2008. I guess they weren't "hidden cameras", though. Camera phones are set up to stop people taking surreptitious pictures, iirc, which is why you can't turn the clicking sound off.

yes you can!

Eyeball Kicks, Thursday, 16 May 2013 13:25 (twelve years ago)

You're right. I think that most phones don't (or at least didn't) have it as a removable option but you can get apps that take silent photos.

хуто-хуторянка (ShariVari), Thursday, 16 May 2013 14:08 (twelve years ago)

No but also you're right and I'm wrong. Every camera and (shitty) phone I've had has had the option, but seems like a lot of phones (including iPhones) don't have it as a standard option. Weird.
