One of the fastest-growing segments of the home security industry, which is rapidly approaching $60 billion a year in sales, is for home security cameras.
That increase in demand of course has created a lot of different manufacturers offering different products at different prices.
So when you go looking for a good home security camera what exactly do you want to look for; what makes for a good home security camera? Usually home hidden cameras are board cameras that are placed inside objects that people are used to seeing everyday.
That board camera transmits images to a TV screen or computer monitor for viewing.
The images are usually transmitted in color or black-and-white and can be done wirelessly or wired.
A relatively new option is to include a built-in DVR.
This option is not available on all spy cameras.

Look for a product that will fit in to your situation there are over 50 to choose from in all price ranges.
2.
The second thing to look for is a distributor that makes all his hidden cameras here in the US- custom-made, not an off-the-shelf import.

Then some distributors bench test their products before they send them out.
That is a further assurance of a quality camera.

Remember that old bumper sticker "stuff happens"? Just in case there is a problem, where do you go to get it fixed.
Chances are the distributor doesn't know enough to do it.
They need a good technical support team backing you up.
5.
And finally everyone is concerned about price these days.
When you go shopping for a good home security camera or hidden security camera look for a distributor who offers a price guarantee to meet or beat any price on the Internet for comparable products.
These are the qualities that make for a good security camera.
