Video Equipment for Civil Disobedience

[lildog]

I think this would be more for Dave Ridley then anyone else but I found two really cool cameras that can be easily hidden for those times you want to catch something on video but might not be able to openly record.

The first is a camera about the size of a USB flash drive

The second is a spy pen

In the case of the video pen, it might help to capture politicians saying things they would otherwise not say if they knew there was a camera pointed at them.  I'm sure you've all experienced times when they say one thing "off record" but say something else on the record.

Just for the heck of it, I ordered one of the spy pens from [url http://www.eaprotection.com/pen-with-hidden-camera-video-recorder.aspx]here[/url]. It arrived and works quite nicely. I've tried it a couple times, and the video quality and sound quality is okay. My biggest problem so far is that the pen is heavy and pulls my cotton pocket, so I can't get it aimed where I want it. I need to try it in a different kind of shirt. Not bad for the price, I'd say.

Yes, I'm aware of all the laws regarding recording with such devices. I'm using it for entertainment purposes only.
