Bag Camera (No DVR)

This is an example of our range of custom-made bag cameras. All types have a quality built-in high definition CMOS camera with sound chip. The bag used is a medium sized black bag with both a strap and a handle and the design could be reasonably considered as unisex.

Camera Positioning Designed for Natural Bag Use

The pinhole camera in this portable spy camera device is secured in position in the end panel of the bag. This means that when the bag camera is carried in the normal manner and over the right shoulder, the camera will be pointing to the front facing the same way as the bag wearer/carrier. This is ideal when walking into a location where video recording needs to be obtained on the move whilst the bag is still on the shoulder of the wearer and as such this allows the user to access any attached video recorder to control it.

Custom Built to Maintain Shape

The inside of the bag is custom packed with foam to protect the spy camera and to ensure that everything is held firmly and securely in place. The bag is lined in such a way so as to make the bag stiff enough to hold its shape. This ensures that the camera remains at the correct angle/position when it is placed on its base. This fact ensures that the camera can still be used to successfully record when placed on a table or a chair facing a surveillance subject.

Bag Only or Full Package Available

This unit can be used in conjunction with a digital video camera with AV input or together with an MP4 Recorder or DVR. Should you use your own video recording system then you may need to use the supplied battery holder which takes 8 x AA size batteries. We also offer a bag Camera Package that includes a law enforcement grade MP4 DVR with inbuilt screen which can be viewed in the Spy Camera Packages category on our website.

Custom Built Designs Possible Upon Request

Although the bag camera has a standard specification with the camera located in one end of the bag, customers often requires slight differences such as a change in camera location. If you wish to discuss alternatives then please call to discuss specific bag requirements. Within reason we are often able to accommodate adjustments, although it should be noted that extensive alterations to the standard format will result in a higher price.

Where is the camera located?

The camera is located in one end of the bag so that it can be carried over the shoulder with the camera facing forwards in a normal manner.

Does the Bag Camera record what the camera sees as well?

No, inside the bag is a connection lead that will enable a recorder of your choice to be connected (maybe a video camera with AV in or an MP4 recorder).

Is the imagery produced by the camera good enough to be able to recognise faces?

Yes, it is very easy to identify people on the footage as long as there is enough light in the environment that the recording takes place and as long as a decent quality recording device is used inside the bag.

Can the bag be used to carry belongings in like a normal bag?

Absolutely. Appearing to use the bag to carry personal effects is part of the disguise.

Will the bag stand up by itself so that it could be left alone to record video footage?

Yes, the bag has been chosen specifically and has been reinforced so that it is stiff enough to stay firmly upright for this type of scenario.
