and they are polarized! sweetness. Although I am leaning towards a pen cam as some of them are of HD quality now. these glasses are only 3.0 MP which is not very good quality(worst than most cell phone cameras these days)

May be lower quality but they are there without you having to hold something in your hand. Definitely more "Stealth" than a hand held.

I actually have a pair. They are good, the lenses smudge really easy, but I used it at the range to see what I was doing and needed to improve. The quality is pretty good, a little less than 30 frames per second, so no high speed movement, but pretty good nonetheless. I ordered mine on ebay for less than $30. Came with a 2gb card in it. I doubt I'll use more than that at a time anyway. I definitely recommend it.

The only negative is the directions suck because its a horrible translation and I can't figure out how to adjust the time stamp.

I have one of these:

(there is a camera at the 2:00 position and it uses up to a 16gb micro sd card)

and one of these:

be86ed1e669d85feab7cc60a70df1e6d.image.280x288.jpg


it uses up to an 8GB micro SD card and is also sound activated.

and one of these mounted as a "dash cam":

All were purchased from ebay. I didn't spend more than $20 on each including shipping from China. Just do a search for Spy camera or Spy DVR or something similar and you will find many different styles available.

All of them do video and audio and have still picture capability. None of them are good in low light and fast motion is very blurry. They may say HD, but don't expect super performance from anything in this category.

LOL A tech geek like me would see that that has a camera on it in an instant. no way would I buy those to record, would just look too obvious. I'd rather get the pen cameras, they are pretty well disguised.
